# Scenario 1: Material Sort Rule Set on a Step

In this scenario, use the `HighPriorityMaterialSorting` Sort Rule Set provided in the [master data file](../masterdata/sort-rules-set-masterdata.xlsx).

1. Open the `Coating` Step View. Before any **Sort Rule Set** is assigned, the materials are sorted by the Material column in alphabetical order.

2. Assign the **Material Sort Rule Set** to the **Step** property.

3. Open the `Coating` Step View again. The **Materials** are now sorted:

    - First by **Priority**
    - Second by **Date Entered Step**
