Additional Information
The order in which a universe appears on the Apply page is the reverse of how it appears in the Process Manager. For imported universes, the universe that was imported first into the site will be at the bottom of the Process Manager. If there are three imported universes in the Process Manager, the one at the bottom of that list is the universe that was imported first and it will appear at the top of the list on the Apply page. Also, if a universe is created in the system, it behaves the same way. The older universe will move down in the Process Manager but appear first in the Apply page view. The determining factors for the order of universes on the Apply page are the creation date and time and the imported date and time.
