Ordering of Filter Search "Preview" List #4404

Closed monojoker closed 9 years ago

monojoker commented 9 years ago

Hi Guys,

When you begin typing into a filter on a document list screen it previews the matching results in a dropdown. Currently this dropdown lists (for example) Sales Orders in ascending order. It makes more sense to search in descending as you're typically searching for a recent document rather than wanting to see the first.

This would be very helpful for users who rely on this search option to quickly locate a customer order for giving status updates to customers on the phone or finding the current order(s) for a particular customer.

I also suspect it's a pretty simple change - just to set the query/result ordering from ASC to DESC? Please consider and let me know :+1:

Thanks Liam.

@monojoker this goes via the standard sorting in the form. Check Customize Form view if you have set it to ascending.

@rmehta I have followed the support on this question in gitter, and It dont work using the standard behavior.

Everything goes via the standard control.js methods. Did not see any customization.

Thanks everyone but @MaxMorais is correct, we have ALWAYS had the sort set to Modified&DESC which should show the last jobs first (by means of them having their workflow_state changed most recently). I have also tried setting it to name&DESC but still it doesn't affect that specific "preview search" feature. Could you look into it please @rmehta it would certainly make ad-hoc searching while on phone to customers MUCH quicker :) Thanks.
