Ticket sorting seems to be random
Hi all
Another Question:
In the Ticket overview over all Tickets (All Queues -> All Tickets)-
I want to sort for Status and it just makes an completely random List with nearly nothing sorted together.
For example:
[Status (arrow down)]
Closed
Closed
New
Open
Closed
Closed
Open
Open
Open
(imagine this as the Status collum)
Why doesn't it just order alphabetically? Is there a way to fix it?
There's no use in sorting like that. Same happens to custom fields (User) and Category (which is 100, 101, etc. in our company)
Thanks

I think that it might be sorting by Status ID instead of Status name, but I'm not positive. I would consider submitting this to support as a possible bug.

I thought of that too. But wouldn't it work like that as well? I mean New and New have the same ID.. Well maybe someone magically shows up with a solution. Otherwise I'll submitting it to support as you suggested. Thanks for the fast answer! - aazimm 11 years ago

Actually, New and New won't have the same ID. If you look in the HD_STATUS table you can see that each status is unique to its queue. This allows you to change the name of a status in one queue without affecting others. - chucksteel 11 years ago

Please provide a screenshot and version number of your Kace unit. I hav etested on my systems and it works as Chuck described Sorts by status ordinal (different for each queue).
The sort shows in the status bar when clicking Status as
BY_STATE_TICKETS=all
ORDER[]=STATUS_ORDINAL <----
ORDER[]=PRIORITY_NUMBER
ORDER[]=SORT_OWNER_NAME
ORDER[]=TITLE

I didn't think to look in the URL. FYI, changing STATUS_ORDINAL to STATUS_NAME does work and tickets are grouped by status first (so tickets from different queues with the same status are together). If you're using the adminui you can then bookmark that URL. - chucksteel 11 years ago

How do I change the Status_Ordinal to Status_Name? Thanks - mrepetti 10 years ago
