1. You can create a private folder in AEM DAM that is available exclusively to you. You can share this private folder to other users and the assign various privileges to them. Based on the privilege level you assign, users can perform various tasks on the folder, for example view assets within the folder or edit the assets.

2. Orderable checkbox in AEM Assets lets you sort folder assets. More info here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-64/assets/managing/enhance-sort.html?lang=en

 

Hope this helps.

@diksha_mishra @aembytes When I initially saw "Orderable" as an option I thought that meant that there was a way users could order prints using Brand Portal not that they could arrange the order of assets in folders. I'm wondering if there is a way to allow users to order (as in receive prints) via AEM Brand Portal or connecting Brand Portal with our printing system?
