Sort order in different list views

[palmen]

Let's say I create 2 different list views for the task table. I set the view-field to "test1" and "test2".

When using these list views I can add different columns to them like this

View "test1"

Column1, Column2, Column3

View "test2"

Column1, Column3, Column4

Everytime I watch these listviews they'll remember how I set the columns.

The question though is if it's possible to have different sort orders for the same table but on different views?

When I try it out I always get the same sort order for test1 and test2 even if I change them. If I change test1 to sort assending on Column1, I'll get the same sort order on test2.

Is the sort order based on the table and the columns in the lsit view based on the view?

Any way to get around this "problem"? It sounds logical to me that you should be able to have different sort orders in different views on the same table.

Hi Fredrik,

If you are not talking about a lot of users, you can enter the records in the user preference table (sys_user_preference). That's how service now remembers individual user's preference

You can open this table and check for the existing entries for any specific user(yourself) to see how data is stored and used in this
