So I am trying to sort based on Submission Status and want to show the status in sequence order. Additionally, we have developed slightly different names that we want to display for users. I created a separate table to relate the old name (OName) to the new name (NNAme) and put in another column for the order in which we want them to show (Order).
I could not get it to sort based on the Order column no matter how I added it. As a temporary work around I added it to the NName column as shown above. Any thoughts on how I can get it to sort by the order column?
Solved! Go to Solution.
select the OName column - Modeling Tab - click Sort By Column - select Order from the dropdown ![]()
