Sort by multiple columns
I'm hoping that I'm missing something really obvious here and someone can kindly sort me out.
I've got loads of comp albums. In fact the vast majority of my library is mix CDs from various clubs/DJs/etc. Previously I had the lib sorted by artist and just set the artist for every track on each album to what ever the publisher was e.g Ministry of Sound or Global Underground. This kept everything nice and tidy.
The album artist field then comes along so while re-encoding my CDs to lossless I thought I'd name each track correctly and use this. All fine and sorted by album artist. Trouble is now the default sort when you do this is:
album artist -> artist
i.e. within the scope of 1 album artist all the entries are mixed up between the multiple albums and track orders are all over the place. What I'd really like is simple to set the sort on my lib to:
album artist -> album -> track number
I know it could be a little tidier to sort just by album but that annoys the **** outta me and I really don't want to have to create 1000s of playlists.
Try sorting on Album until the header indicates "Album by Artist". See if that looks better ...

How to sort on Multiple columns in WebI report
Hi
I am working in BO XI R2. I have a report containing two columns in a section. Section is on Fiscal Year- Fiscal year includes calendar year 2010 and 2011.
data for fiscal year 2010 is from october onwards.
The two columns in the section are
column 1- calendar Year
column 2- calendar Month
I want to display results as follows
2010 oct
2010 nov
2010 dec
2011 jan
2011 feb and so on.
I first sorted calendar year column so that it shows
2010
2011
but when i try to sort calendar month, for 2010 I am able to display oct, nov, dec in a ascending order but for 2011 the months are displayed randomly. Business user wants to see them in ascending order from Jan to June.
Please let me know how to get this functionality in the report.
Thanks in advance.Hello Gurus,
I have same issue with me I am working on XI3.1 and I want to apply Sort on multiple columns on Single block.
So as you can see the "Org Name" is decending Order and " Emails Sent" total is 63 and "BCB" have 18 total.
How would I apply sorting based on email sent from high number to low number. Please help.
Thank you.

We used to be able to sort by multiple columns/rows at once by right clicking on the header and choosing show more options-how do we do that in the new Numbers? It doesn't appear anywhere. Do I now have to sort massive tables by each column one at a time now? Also there used to be an easier way to merge/unmerge cells without me having to go to the table menu each time. Am I missing something?
Multiple column sort is a missing feature in the new version. Hopefully soon to return. You can do a multicolumn sort by sorting one at a time in reverse order of importance.
For merging and unmerging cells, I select the cells and right click to bring up the contextual menu. Merge and unmerge are on the menu. You could also create keyboard shortcuts for Merge Cells and Unmerge Cells in the Table menu. -
Sorting by Multiple Columns in Numbers 3.0
The new Numbers 3.0 update has moved some stuff around I need, and can not find.
Where is "Reorganize"? The ability to sort multiple by columns. (e.g. Sort Ascending Column A, THEN Column B, THEN Column C)
mfthis didn't work for me - i have item, then price, then checkbox. using the formula just gave an amalgamation of the three cells.
Hi Saqib,
The very idea of the workaround is to give an amalgamation, more often called "concatenation", and then just sort on the column containing the concatenated "string."
As you've discovered, the =A&C&B formula only works if A,C, and B are all text. If you've got numbers in the mix then you have to pad them with leading zeros for them to sort as you want. That's easily done.
Let's say C is a number and A and B are strings. You could put somethng like this in column D:
=A&RIGHT("0000"&C,4)&B
It's certainly not convenient to have to add a new column and put in a formula. But this is not *that* difficult as a workaround until the day multcolumn sort is added back in.

Can data be sorted by multiple columns in numbers version 3
Since upgrading Numbers to version 3 (now 3.0.1) I have been unable to sort data in spreadsheets using multiple columns. Anyone found a solution?
Regards
kurrajong60Here's a simple example. Say you want this sorted first by Region then by Name then by Amount.
So if you set up a sort index column with a simple formula and all you have to do is this (two clicks):
Giving you this:
Of course you could do it as I think Hiroto is suggesting and manually sort first by column B, then sort by C, then sort by A.
But that's a lot of trouble and it's easy to confuse the order so you end up having to start over again.

ALV: How to sort multiple columns?
Hi all,
Good morning!
I have a requirement to sort multiple columns in ALV. I did a search and tried with following codes:
data: lo_config_alv type ref to cl_salv_wd_config_table.
lo_config_alv->if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_multi_column_sort( value = abap_true ).
But I still can not sort for multiple columns.
Please guide me how to do that.
Thanks,
KhanhHello,
If you want to sort ALV by multiple fields, then you have to create sort rule for each field and set sort position for each field to specify the sequence in which you want to sort multiple columns.
Here is a sample code:
* Sort rows by PRICE descending
DATA: lr_field1 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
DATA: lr_rule1 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
lr_field1 = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'PRICE' ).
lr_field1->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
RECEIVING value = lr_rule1 ).
lr_rule1->set_sort_position( 2 ). "set the sort position to 2
* Sort rows by seatsmax descending
DATA: lr_field2 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
DATA: lr_rule2 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
lr_field2 = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'SEATSMAX' ).
lr_field2->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
RECEIVING value = lr_rule2 ).
lr_rule2->set_sort_position( 1 ). "set the sort position to 1
* Sort rows by seatsocc descending
DATA: lr_field TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
DATA: lr_rule3 TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_SORT_RULE.
lr_field = lv_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'SEATSOCC' ).
lr_field->if_salv_wd_sort~create_sort_rule( EXPORTING sort_order = if_salv_wd_c_sort=>sort_order_descending
RECEIVING value = lr_rule3 ).
lr_rule3->set_sort_position( 3 ). "set the sort position to 3
In the above code, the sequence of sorting would be seatsmax price seatsocc
If you dont specify the sort position, then the sequence of sorting would be the order in which the sort rules are created.
In the above example, if we didnt set sort positions for the fields, then order would be price seatsmax seatsocc.
Refer to this link for more info: https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-33859
Hope this helps!

Is it possible to do sorting on multiple field inside a GROUP
Hi
I am wondering if it is possible to do a multiple sorting on multiple column/fields?
When I right click on Change Group on the report
on the "Change Group Options" window, it only has one field which allow you to sort in ascending/ descending order.
I notice that it also has another checkbox which called Use a formula as Group Sort order, I am not quite sure how to use it to sort multifield/column.
E.g.
I have a table which has 5 fields
I would like to sort it by TotalSpend, TotalEarned, Department, ...etc
I would be grateful, if you can show me how to do a group sorting for multi column/fields
Thanks in advance.To Sastry,
Thanks for your information, unfortunately, I am using Crystal report XI.
To Sandra,
<<Yes, go into the Group expert and select them in the order in which you want them sorted>>
Do you mean create different group to do the sorting?
Could you show me how to create a formula which allow crystal report to do the sorting on multi-field.
Thanks in advance. -
I am unable to sort multiple columns in a table created in Pages.
I had been using Appleworks up until I installed Lion and have now switched to iWork. I created a table within a Pages document and am able to sort a single column (using the Table Inspector and choosing Sort from Edit Rows and Columns) but the Sort option is grayed out when I attempt to sort multiple columns.
In another post, someone talked about this being a problem if you have merged fields. I do not believe I have done this (to be honest I don't know the function of merging fields).
This is very frustrating as I was easily able to sort these tables in Appleworks.Sharon Anderson wrote:
Thanks for your quick response! I have been trying that but then found that Numbers would only let me print in landscape view so I had to paste the table back into Pages. Is there a way to print in portrat view (from Numbers?)
Not so. In the lower left corner of the window, there's an icon that looks like a piece of paper. If you see this:
you are in Sheet View, or normal, mode. If you see this:
You are in Print View mode. Now you see the icons for portrait and landscape modes. Click your choice. Then arrange your content to fit the pages as you wish.

Sorting a Collection with dynamic columns using a custom compare function for multiple columns
I need help and ideas on how to sort a ListCollectionView. My problem is complicated by 3 requirements-
1. The column values contain HTML tags that needs to be removed before sorting (use custom compareFunction to strip HTML)
2. The columns are dynamic, so dataField names are not known at compile time (need a single compareFunction for all columns)
3. The data is used in an AdvancedDataGrid so multi-column sorting is required
I have figured out how to solve any 2 of the 3 requirements. However, I am having difficulties supporting all 3 requirements.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.After playing with this some more I think I've figured out a solution. This seems to work in initial testing. Also, there is not a need to capture the current sort column in the headerRelease event which many offered solutions suggested. Another benefit to this solution is that keyboard initiated sorting is handled also. Whereas the headerRelease event is only triggered by a mouse click on the column header and special handling is required if the user uses the keyboard to access the column header.
One point that I don't understand is how ascending/decending order is determined. Behavior seems to be different between a single SortField versus multiple SortFields. Notice how the compareResults are handled for the different situations. Anyone out there know why???
private function colSortCompareFunction(obj1:Object, obj2:Object, fields:Array = null):int{
var compareResults:int = 0;
var newObj1:Object = new Object();
var newObj2:Object = new Object();
// should not be a condition that is met
if (_dataProviderDetails.sort.fields == null) {
var s:Sort = new Sort();
var f:Function = s.compareFunction;
return f.call(null, obj1, obj2, fields); }
// when a single column is selected for sorting
else if (_dataProviderDetails.sort.fields.length == 1) {
var firstFld:SortField = _dataProviderDetails.sort.fields[0];
newObj1[firstFld.name] = stripHTML(obj1[firstFld.name]as String); newObj2[firstFld.name] = stripHTML(obj2[firstFld.name]
as String);
compareResults = ObjectUtil.compare(newObj1[firstFld.name], newObj2[firstFld.name]);
return compareResults; }
// when multiple columns are selected for sorting
else {
for each (var fld:SortField in _dataProviderDetails.sort.fields) {
newObj1[fld.name] = stripHTML(obj1[fld.name]
as String); newObj2[fld.name] = stripHTML(obj2[fld.name]
as String);
compareResults = ObjectUtil.compare(newObj1[fld.name], newObj2[fld.name]);
if (compareResults != 0) {
if (fld.descending) {
return compareResults * -1; }
else {
return compareResults; }
return compareResults; }
Does anyone see any problems with this solution?
NOTE: stripHTML(String) is a simple function using regular expression to remove HTML tags.
Thx -
Sorting records based on multiple columns
Hi All,
Please provide SQK query to sort the records in multiple columns
based on NON NULL and NULL values.
SID SNUMBER UNIT COUNTRY STATE
0 M14762 DE 0
NULL NULL NULL NULL
0 990 GB
0 M14704 IE 0
M14767 IE 0
0 M14704 FR 0
0 M15351 990 GB
FR 0
0 D10693 800 GB 0
NULL NULL NULL NULL
0 D10693 800 GB 0
If all column values are NOT NULL those records should come first.
If first column(SID) values are NOT NULL those records should come next.
If second column(SNUMBER) values are NOT NULL those records should come next.
If third column(UNIT) values are NOT NULL those records should come next.
If fourth column(COUNTRY) values are NOT NULL those records should come next.
If fifth column(STATE) values are NOT NULL those records should come next.
If all the column values are NULL those records should come last.
The output should be like this.

Multiple columns from a query sorted vertically
Is it possible to sort a query resultset vertically, with
multiple columns across the page, in the following manner, with
page breaks after 40 rows? I can get it to sort horizontally just
fine with tables, but how can it be done vertically as shown?
JONES, Abby JONES, Betty JONES, Dawn JONES, Frank
JONES, Adam JONES, Bill JONES, Debbie JONES, Gayle
JONES, Alice JONES, Bob JONES, Denton JONES, Henry
JONES, Ben JONES, Cathy JONES, Emma JONES, JohnThis will get you started. I assume you had the appropriate
order by clause in your query. I also assume you want 4 columns per
line.
My approach would be to convert the query to an array and
then output the array.
columns = 4;
maxrows = 40;
recordsperpage = columns * rows;
records = query.recordcount;
myArray = ArrayNew(2);
ThisColumn = 1;
ThisRow = 1;
if (records gt recordsperpage)
LoopTill = recordsperpage;
else
LoopTill = records;
for ( ii = 1; ii lte LoopTill; ii = ii + 1){
myArray[ThisRow][ThisColumn] = query.field[ii];
increment ThisRow;
if (ThisRow = MaxRows + 1) {
ThisRow = 1;
increment ThisColumn;
} // if
} // looop
You can do the rest -

at a time. initially this sorted data is coming from Function module, but now the data is coming from BW to Web dynpro java
I have one method in sort class which will sort the table on one column at time. i need help in enhancing this method to work for three columns.

f you does not have WDTableColumnSortDirection try to modify the MultiAttributesNodeComparator and replace WDTableColumnSortDirection with the boolean flag-indicator of the sorting direction. Like this:
boolean sortAsc = true; // WDTableColumnSortDirection.UP
Call this class from web dynpro view
final MultiAttributesNodeComparator nodeComparator = new MultiAttributesNodeComparator();
nodeComparator.sortElements(new String[] {"InvoiceDate","Invoice","Contract"}, true, wdContext.nodeInvoiceListTable());
