Hi Gareth,
At the moment, you cannot sort by groups in this view. This would be a feature request. Would you like me to open a feature request regarding this?
Use Case:
I have setup **Hachette CR Process **which will only show Requests that are Unapproved within the Approval process (see attachment).
Issue:
I cannot sort by Group in the new View.

Hey Tom,
Yes please - seems silly you cannot sort on anything in a view.
Workaround:
I have added a Custom Field called Sort Order to the groups, which is a numerical field. This allows admins to enter the ranges for each group manually.
A Custom Field called Group Sort Order has been added to the Request and a Custom Workflow will update this field when edited based off the assigned Group's Sort Order. I have added Sort Order to the required views as a sorted column.
Dirty way around which means i have to:
* Use two Custom Fields up from my quota.
* Use a Custom Workflow up from my quote.
* Add a column to the View and then explain to our users that you cannot sort off name, you need to use a pre-defined sorting mechanism.
A fix to this would be good. I dont think this is a feature but a bug.
Hi Tom.
Can i ask what the feature request number is and where it is in the approval process?
Gareth, We have a few requests for this, all a bit different but centered around having custom field types other than text type being searchable (i.e. Pick lists). I do not see one specific to Groups but would happily add your Use case to an existing request or a new one.
Let me know which you prefer.
