Reference Qualifier - a condition combined with ORDERBY

Hi Community,

I have a question about how to write reference qualifier.

I have a condition to filter a select lookup box, and I want to organize the choices using ORDERBY.

 

Now my reference qualifier is like this:

javascript: 'u_item_name='+current.variables.u_item_name_women;

And I want to add ORDERBY, however, it didn't work after trying the below ones:

javascript: 'u_item_name='+current.variables.u_item_name_women^'ref_ac_order_by='u_order;
javascript: 'u_item_name='+current.variables.u_item_name_women+'^ref_ac_order_by=u_order';
javascript: 'u_item_name='+current.variables.u_item_name_women^ORDERBYu_order;

I suspect the codes are slightly wrong, but not knowing which part.

I'd be very thankful if anyone could help me.

Hi 

Try ordering by on variable attribute and call the reference qualifier like this 

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=u_field1,ref_ac_columns_search=true,ref_ac_order_by=u_order

your reference qualifier :-

javascript:'u_item_name='+current.variables.u_item_name_women

Thank you Omkar,

do I need to change "u_field1" in 

"ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=u_field1,ref_ac_columns_search=true,ref_ac_order_by=u_order" ?

I tried just as you suggested, but still not working...

Cheers,

Lit

Hi 

Don't write anything in u_field1. Try this 

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns_search=true,ref_ac_order_by=u_order"
