Should the underlayment run vertical (parrallel to the sheet) or horizontal (90d to the sheet) when placed on top of sheathing in a new roof?? and how much should I over lap it??

Horizontal. Lap per manufacturer instructions of either the underlayment or the roofing to be installed. Often 6". Todd Miller
