Move Up | Moves the selected parser higher in list. Note: The order matters for selected parsers only: they are applied to error logs in the same sequence as defined by the user. The order is not preserved for unchecked parsers, so you do not have to move them.
Move Down | Move the selected parser lower in list. Note: The order matters for selected parsers only: they are applied to error logs in the same sequence as defined by the user. The order is not preserved for unchecked parsers, so you do not have to move them.
