right click on Views >> choose browser organisation

select (Sub-Discipline) and click edit.

got to grouping and sorting then change the criteria of sorting.

or instead of editing you can create new organisation method.

If you are happy with your organisation method but only want to rename the names highlighted below. these names are based on the value you give it to a certain parameter in the view properties.

open one of your views and send screen shot of the view properties and I can tell you which parameter to change.

those look to be names of Sub-Discipline designations someone setup for Views.

make a View List schedule including View Name, Discipline, Sub-discipline and Count
sort by Subdiscipline
- this will group them all together
in the sorting and grouping tab, uncheck itemize every instance
- this will make one line for each subdiscipline.
edit the subdiscipline name as desired
- it will change for all views that have that subdiscipline as a designator.
