Problem with orderby in Odata query

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 843

Hello,

I am trying, using orderby, to sort the received data from OData.
However, it is not working for me - doesn't sort..

I using:

[*d365URL*]/data/[*data entity collection name*]?&orderby=[*field*]

Is this no longer supported?

Thanks.

    Problem with orderby in Odata query
    Hey All,
     
    I came across this issue with a client using the "General Ledger Entries" Page 20 as an OData data source. After some testing, I have learned that $orderby will not work when the data source is a page that has default sorting defined by the SourceTableView property.
     
    Thanks

    Hi Shooowtek,

    The orderby query is supported, I noticed that you have used the wrong symbols. Please try with the symbols ‘$’ again.

    [*d365URL*]/data/[*data entity collection name*]?$orderby=[*field*]

    How is the data sorted by default in the data entity?

    Unfortunately it doesn't work on my custom data entity.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I have tried with my custom Data entity and sorted on Qty field and it worked perfectly fine. I don't think there is any extra setting or property required.

    Hello,

    I can see that sorting does not work on custom data entities..

    I tried comparing my entity to standardoywch, but found nothing. Is some settings responsible for OData sorting? Or maybe the custom tables I created don't have the right settings?

    Thanks.
