Invoice Sales/Purchase Order Sorting

Posted By Alistair Hindmarsh over 7 years ago

Whenever I select one of the lists for Invoices/Cust Orders/Purch Orders the list always sorts with the most recent transactions at the bottom using the Inv No, SO No etc. Is there no way to default or save the last sort so that it does it by Date order with the most recent at the top - next to the icons for ease of use.

With 20,000 sales orders, its a pain to click the date column twice to sort in date order each time you open Sage, which happens several times a day as we have two companies.

Cheers

Hi Alistair,

Thanks for your query. I have tested this in the latest version and it is retaining the sort.

As it's not retaining this in your software, it may be due to the criteria files in the data directories. It could also be permissions on the program and data folders.

So we can check, and delete if necessary, the criteria files for you, I recommend speaking to a technician on 0845 111 55 55.

Thanks,

Brian

Hi Brian,

Yes, the issue is actually that the criteria/search criteria are being retained even after you delete them and clear the form - it looks like they are gone, but when you go back into that company and that list, the criteria are back.

Thanks Alistair,

It suggests that it may be a permissions issue to a file called Sage.INI.

You should check that the Windows user has modify permissions allowed to the program and data directories.

If the same happens, we may need to look at deleting the criteria files in the actual data directories. I recommend speaking to a technician before deleting any .dta files.

Thanks,

Brian
