Is it possible to sort the digital channels list using CPS? I downloaded a code plug and the list is all over the place with no rhyme or reason. I'd like to clean it up!

A great reason to create your own code plug from scratch, so its the way YOU want it. Not the way somebody else wants it. Very easy to do on a Moto radio. I have no idea on the CS radios. But good luck.
Under TOOLS export channels to csv file. Make your changes to the csv file then import back to the cps
Even simpler.... use this: N0GSG DMR Contact Manager Support Page
I started using this today...thanks for the link!
I just purchased a CS800D (The Part90 one) and used the latest version of Contact Manager to import my channels and contacts. I've had some weird behavior with my codeplug. The contact name wasn't properly populated in the DMR channels and some of my CTCSS tones in my analog channels were changed. I don't know for sure that the Contact Manager problem is at fault. The Contact Manager version is a few months old and it may be that it isn't caught up withe the latest Connect Systems CPS. To be clear, I'm not bad-mouthing the Contact Manager program at all. I've used it and it is a very valuable program for ham DMR users. Be sure to inspect your codeplug closely after importing information. If you find odd behavior I'm sure both Connect Systems and N0GSG would benefit from the information.
I've kept both codeplugs on file so if the Contact Manager version doesn't look or work correctly I can fall back to my original CPS version. Thanks for the heads up.
I don't think the N0GSG contact manager has been updated to work with the latest version of CPS for the CS800D. I heard some chatter on the radio about that yesterday. That may be why you are experiencing weirdness with your codeplug.
Well, that helps confirm my suspicions. I've been trying to export portions of my codeplug to *.CSV files to see if I can find anything odd there but nothing is standing out. I may just need to compile my codeplug manually and forego the addition of new contacts for the time being.
Thanks for the confirmation skypilot.
