Hello,

I have a custom report which uses the InventoryItem dac and i want to sort it by the UsrReportLine custom field which is in the InventoryItem dac and it is a nvarchar type. I have applied the sorting but the sorting doesn’t seem to be working properly.

This is the report outcome. But the sorting doesn’t work

I have also attached the rpx file below. Please if anyone could check and let me know i would greatly appreciate it! Thanks.

You’re attempting to sort a string in ascending order. It’s working exactly like it should.

You have two options:

  • Change the custom field to an int type (1, 2, 3, etc)
  • Pad your number strings (001, 002, 010, 011, etc)

Either of these should accomplish what you are expecting.
