Update import profiles, so portfolios are listed in ALMA & Primo in the same order as the 856 fields in the bibliographic record
Currently electronic portfolios are generated from the 856 fields in the bibliographic record, but they appear in reverse order in ALMA and Primo. Vendors often have 856 for multiple volumes in their records and they often list URLs in the order of their importance. In my attached example, the vendor includes a link to browse the particle resource first, then links to search the collections which contains the resource. The links are listed in order of importance. It is confusing to the user to list v.2 before v.1 and less important searching options before the most direct way of access the material. This should be corrected.

We need to be able to re-sort portfolios, because sometimes volumes of a set are issued as they are finished, rather than in numerical order (such as a large collection of the correspondence of a famous person). Also we need the volume information to display on a repository search results page, both for e-title searches (in the Expand Electronic space) and portfolio searches (or when you click on the "Portfolio List" button after an e-title search).

The existing reverse order is just one of the annoying, confusing, and unhelpful instances of Alma listing/displaying information in he reverse order from that in the bibliographic record/reverse order of creation. I support this idea 100%.
