Hi Tezza,
You can definitely have your products and services sorted on a particular order in your Products and Services dashboard by default meaning every time you go into Products and Services dashboard, the items are always displayed in the order that you want them in. The sorting is based on the Headers such as: Name, SKU, Type, Sales Price, Cost and so on.
You have the option to customise what data you want to be displayed on your dashboard by clicking the tiny Cog Wheel right at the top of "Action" column and tick the boxes of the columns that you want to be displayed.
This gives you flexibility and control on what data you want users to see without having to click on the individual items which comes in really handy.
Let us know if you have further questions.
