Sort order of text is not as expected

Hi
I need to sort a characteristic by its medium text in BEX (3.5.). However, the sort order is not as expected: uppercase letters are sorted first when selecting ascending order:
AAA
AXZ
Abc
BBB
Baa
Bbb
But this only applies when I use language=EN. For other languages defined in our system (fx. DE), the sort order is ignoring the cases:
AAA
Abc
AXZ
Baa
BBB
Bbb
The user wants that texts is sorted like this.
I have read note 952625 on sort collation sequences. And now I wonder if
a) The standard sort collation sequence for English is different from fx. German og Danish.
b) We have a different setting somewhere (locale setup) that generates these differences.
Our BW system is technical 7.0, but most of our cubes are still 3.5 and also our BEX is still running 3.5.
OS = AIX, Unicode systems=no. Database = DB6.
Best regards and thanks in advance for any reply

Hi Martin,
Did you find the answer to your question? Do you know why it happened?
Thanks,

  • Changing sort order in iTunes does not change order on iPad

    If you create a new playlist (not a smart playlist) in iTunes, you can get the songs to order according to the track number or the name of the song or the size etc. It used to be that this selected sort order would be reflected in the corresponding playlists on the iPhone/iPad
    This doesn't seem to work using iTunes 10.6, iTunes Match and iOS 5.1 on my iPad 2.
    1. I create a new playlist in iTunes and name it Test.
    2. I sort this playlist by the Name column, so that the songs are in the A to Z order (Fernando, SOS, Waterloo)
    3. The new playlist appears on my iPad.
    4. The iPad playlist lists the songs in the order selected in iTunes.
    Now, back in iTunes, I click on the Name column again, so the names are now sorted in reverse. That is, from Z to A (Waterloo, SOS, Fernando). I also rename the playlist to Test 2 so that I know that the same playlist has been updated on my iPad.
    So the playlist Test 2 is now ordered by the song name from Z to A in iTunes. However, the playlist on the iPad does NOT reflect the new sort order. It is still ordered A to Z, not Z to A as I expected.
    5. Now I create a new playlist named Test 3. I open Test 2 (still in the order Z to A) and copy the songs to Test 3.
    6. The new playlist named Test 3 appears on the iPad.
    7. The songs are in the correct order.
    8. Change the order again in the playlist.
    9. The change in the order is NOT reflected on the iPad.
    Grrr. I quit the Music app (including the background process on the iPad) and launch it again. But the order of the songs in Test 2 is still not the same as in iTunes.
    Totally frustrated, I do the following:
    1. Quit all apps running in the background on the iPad.
    2. Go to Settings and turn off iTunes Match.
    3. Log out of the iTunes store.
    4. Restart my iPad so that the playlists disappear from my Music app.
    5. Turn iTunes Match back on.
    6. Log back into the Store.
    7. Wait for the iCloud to sync.
    8. Playlist Test 2 is still in the incorrect order! This is unbelievable.
    I have tried the Right-Click 'Copy to Play Order' trick that I read about in another post but it doesn't help.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any solutions?
    Thanks in advance.

    This isn't an issue of putting songs on that I don't want, it's that it doesn't CHANGE my music, even when I try to make it change.  I've got over 15000 songs in my iTunes; my iPod can only hold around 275 songs.  My problem, is that I can't make it "randomly" choose different songs.  when I try to change the music, it puts the same songs on over and over.
    Emphasis here is on RANDOM: I do not want to have to select the music to put on my shuffle. and
    CHANGE: If I only wanted to listen to the same 275 songs, I wouldn't have bothered purchasing the others...

  • Reminders-sort order of tasks does not sync

    I'm trying to use Reminders on my iPhone 4s, iMac running Mountain Lion and iCloud. Although syncing does occur BETWEEN THESE 3 APPS,
    THE SORT ORDER OF THE TASKS IS COMPLETELY OUT OF SYNC. I need to sort my many to do tasks manually as priorities change
    daily. Therefore it's important to have the sort order (sequence of task items) sync across these devices. I imagine many users would agree with this.

    Just discovering for myself that re-ordering reminders can be achieved - but order is not synced between devices or shared accounts. Which is to say it's about as much use as a chocolate teapot.
    For the record, I have thrown the equivalent of a message in a bottle to feedback - an action for which I believe the acronym is CWOT.
    Also, it seems there's a thing called customer quality feedback...
    Visit our Customer Quality Feedback (CQF) site at: http://www.cqf.apple.com/
    However, it doesn't work...
    Alas, it seems the writing is on the wall for Apple.

  • SQL Server Query - Sorting of records in desc not as expected - Urgent Help needed

    Hi,
    I have a query
    SELECT a.* FROM
    (SELECT '1234' AS id, '001' AS co_id, 'VA' AS state_id, 'AA' AS company
    UNION
    SELECT '1234' AS id,'012' AS co_id,'VA' AS state_id,'AA' as company
    )a ORDER BY id,co_id DESC
    The above query returns a result as expected. But when we include state_id on the order by clause the desc result behaves different.
    SELECT a.* FROM
    (SELECT '1234' AS id, '001' AS co_id, 'VA' AS state_id, 'AA' AS company
    UNION
    SELECT '1234' AS id,'012' AS co_id,'VA' AS state_id,'AA' as company
    )a ORDER BY id,co_id,state_id DESC
    As highlighted on both pic, Even though the state_id value and other values are same, the result is not sorted in desc on the second case.
    Please let me know how to fix this..

    Hi,
    Which means that i have to give desc on
    every columns on the order by clause if i want whole result on desc..
    Any way, thanks a lot.
    Yes. The direction of sort has to be set for each field
    so if there are fields A,B,C and you want sort based on ASC on A and desecending on B,C you need to use
    ORDER BY A,B DESC,C DESC

  • Bug - Sorting Order in SQL Reports not Working?

    Today i defined a SQL Report in APEX and choose 3 columns for sorting the report.
    The order is like that:
    1. Category
    2. List Price
    3. Product Name
    When calling the SQL Report in a new session i expected to get a sorted report like defined.
    I got only the report like the last person who edited this report.
    It looks like that the Sort Sequence columns is not usable in SQL Reports.
    Here is an example based on the problems which i described:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=40082
    below the SQL Report a screenshot is shown, where the Report Attributes (and the sort sequence) is displayed.

    OliverL
    Did you reset the pagination of the report you made the changes to?
    Normal behaviour is that APEX remembers per user per report the last sorting that was used.
    Including when a user clicked a column header to change the order from the default one.
    The sort preference are stored in preferences with a name like FSPapp_id_Ppage_id_Rinternal region_id_SORT.

  • Brazil: Copy Transfer Order header text to Nota Fiscal

    Good morning, all!
    The company I work for has a process in which certain non-retail goods are transferred from one store (or distribution center) to another. The transfer order is created in ME27. After that, the user creates a shipping document and executes the Post Goods Issue in VL02N. This creates a material document, the number of which movement automatically creates a Brazilian Nota Fiscal.
    We want to know how we might configure the system so that a header text in the shipping document or in the transfer order may be copied to the header text of the nota fiscal.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    That space is specifically about the process of sending the invoices to the government electronically (e-invoicing or NFe in portuguese).
    The functional process leading to the creation of the NF/invoice is either MM-related (if it's a purchase invoice) or SD (if it's a sales invoice). The transfer of invoice header text to the NF object (J1B3N) is specific to the Brazilian Localization of ERP.
    Blake Matthews,
    if you have someone from your Brazilian team, you can ask them to create a question in Portuguese in this space: Aplicações do SAP Business Suite (SAP Business Suite Applications).

  • Sort Order in detail Tiles CRM3.0 MSA

    Hi there,
    I've got a small question about the sortordering in the detail tiles. I tried to change the sort order but I'm not able to find the sourcecode where I can change this. I just had a look at the tile, the querry and the Bdoc.
    It would be very great if somebody could help me.
    Best regards
    Christian

    Hi Stefan,
    since this tile is a list tile (not a detail one) you can also use an alternate solution for your problem. Just put the following VBA Code in e.g. the onload event of your tile for the underlying grid:
    [Name of Gridcontrol].sortCol = X
    where X is the columnnumber of the list after which should be sorted. Positive Numbers for Ascending Sorting, negative Numbers for Descending Sorting. (Could be vice versa )

  • Sort order inconsistent behavior

    There seems to be inconsistent behaviour when defining a default sort order sequence.
    Everything works as expected when the display sequence and the order in which the columns are defined in the query are the same but as soon as the display sequence is changed the default sort order doesn't work for the second column in the order sequence.
    I have put up an example at [apex.com|http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=36885:1]
    In report EMP the display sequence and query sequence are the same and the default sort on "Job" and "Hiredate" is correct working. Even when the user sorts on "Manager".
    The sort order sequence then becomes "Manager", "Job" and "Hiredate". As also descripted in the following Sorting on multiple columns
    And exactly the behaviour we are looking for.
    Report EMP2 is a copy of EMP with the only difference the order in which the columns are displayed
    Now the default sort order doesn't work as expected. The report is first ordered on "Job" but then on "Employee" instate of "Hiredate" as is defined. Interestingly "Employee" is the second column in the query.
    It seems that instate of the query_column_id the column_display_sequence is used in the order by. At least for the second column in the defined sort order sequence.
    This may also explain the behaviour mentioned with [derived columns and sort sequence|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=1006429&#1006429]
    The display sequence in report EMP2 is where the wizard came up with.
    Nicolette

    Stew
    At the report attributes you can define the sort sequence of a column. When you do that initialy the report is sorted as you defined it. So in my example that is first by "Job"and within "Job" by "Hiredate". When the user sort explicit on an other column this column is put before the columns you have defined.
    So when the user clicks on "Manager" the sort order becomes "Manager", "Job", "Hiredate". When the user then sort on "Employee" the sort order becomes "Employee", "Job" an "Hiredate".
    This works when the order in which the columns appear in your query are the same as the order in which they are displayed.
    BUT as soon as the display order changes the sort sequence doesn't work anymore. Even worse is that also the initial sort sequence doesn't work for the second column any more. (I haven't tested for three or more columns)
    In the example I have put on apex.com in the second report the sort sequence of the report attributes is the same as in the first report. But the initial sort order that is actually done is on "Job" and "Employee" instate of "Job" and "Hiredate". Where "Hiredate" is the second column in the display sequence. But "Employee" is the second column in the query.
    So to really make use of the sort sequence you have to keep your display sequence equal to the order in witch they appear in the query. This isn't really practical.

  • Thunar: incorrect sort order

    Hello, everyone.
    Guys, maybe any of you encountered with that problem in Thunar... especially if you use cyrillic letters in file or folder names.
    I have the latest version of Thunar (1.4.0) installed, and it turns out it incorrectly sorts contents of folders.
    I can not even understand the way Thunar sorts contents of any folder.
    Here is the contents of one folder "sorted" by name (ascending).
    Looking from top to bottom I see file names starting with...
    cyrillic upper letters
    digits
    cyrillic lower letters
    again digits
    again cyrillic lower letters
    english lower letters
    and again cyrillic lower letters
    Concrete example of another folder "sorted" by name:
    голубь.txt
    иволга.txt
    аист.txt
    орёл.txt
    сова.txt
    Absoluletly wrong order. The file with name that starts with 'A' is in the middle.
    Cyrillic alpabet is:
    Аа Бб Вв Гг Дд Ее Ёё Жж Зз Ии Йй Кк Лл Мм Нн Оо Пп Рр Сс Тт Уу Фф Хх Цц Чч Шш Щщ ЬЬ Ыы ЪЪ Ээ Юю Яя
    Meanwhile
    ls -1
    gives right order
    аист.txt
    голубь.txt
    иволга.txt
    орёл.txt
    сова.txt
    PCManFM and other filemanagers give right sort order.
    So, Thunar DOES NOT sort with 'ls'. Also, sort order of Thunar CAN NOT be changed using LC_COLLATE.
    Thunar uses its own "mega-wise" algorithm.
    P.S.
    By the way, before version 1.4.0, everything was OK in Thunar. So one day their devs decided to make some "improvements".

    This is open source, bro. You can't make anybody do anything, but you might encourage some admin to ban you if you willfully break rules. If you can't break open the source and fix the problem yourself (which is surely the most speedy solution!), you're better off following community procedures and being as helpful as possible.

  • How change the sort order of searched items so last search item shows first. I DO NOT mean the order of search engines, but existing searches by down arrow key

    I want to be able to change the sort order of items I have already searched for in the search box. I want to be able to hit the down arrow key and see my previous searches in the order of last search showing first. At the moment I have no idea how it is sorting and it's very annoying to have to re-type a query I typed 5 minutes earlier but because I typed in another 10 since it is lost somewhere in the list. Can this be done, I have googled but did not find the topic anywhere. Just to clarify, I DO NOT MEAN the order of search engines (which is all that comes up in google), I mean the actual text typed in which has been saved in the drop down list.
    Thanks

    The "form fill" feature uses a "frecency" algorithm, frequency + recency, similar to the address bar autocomplete list.
    I found an extension that seems relevant, but the reviews are old so I'm not sure it's still working: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchbar-autocomplete-order/ Searchbar Autocomplete Order].
    But... is the autocomplete not working? I would expect that typing a couple characters of the earlier query would filter the list so you can easily select it? Or is the problem that the list doesn't remember enough searches for that?

  • Document library items are not displaying in sorted order in sharepoint 2013

    Hi,
    I have a document library , I am storing document sets on it.

    Please help me on this sorting issue.
    Thanks,

    Are the documents displaying in your image inside the document sets?  If so then your sets (folders) are displaying in alphabetical order and the documents inside the sets are displaying in alphabetical order.  This is what i would expect.

  • Specified Sort Order not working correctly in InfoView

    Hello All,
    We are running Crystal 2008 version 12.2.0.290 with Infoview 12.1.0 and are having a problem with specified sort orders working correctly.  In Crystal we are using the 'Chart Expert' to set the specified order of the percent bar chart.  It works just fine in Crystal 2008 and shows the stacked bar in the order we would expect.  We then save the report to InfoView and run the report on a schedule and it comes back in a completely different order. Not the order we specified in designing the report.  Any ideas on what is going on?
    Thanks in advance.

    We are experiencing a similar issue with the sort order in Infoview. We are using Crystal XI.5.8.26 and Infoview.
    The specified sort order works correctly in Crystal but in Infoview it comes back with a different order. Are there any suggestions on resolving this disparity?
    Thank you.

  • Sort Order Not working in LR 3

    I cannot get sort order to function correctly in Library Mode. When I make it "User Order" it still put them in some seemingly random order and won't let me drag and drop images into a new order. I drag them to a location and it places them in a completely different random location.
    Is this a bug, is this normal, what am I missing? Seems like incredibly basic functionality.
    FYI, this particular set is all virtual copies not original images. it is a set of "treated" virtual copies and has 526 images in it.
    Driving me crazy and need solution. Help!
    Thanks!

    Yeah, it is a collection within a collection set. I just upgraded from 3.0 to 3.3 and it seems to have fixed it. Was weird that a bug like that could make it to version 3.2 before being fixed but as long as it's fixed now.
    Wouldn't happen in collections with much less images, was only happening in the one with 500+ and they were all virtual copies. Not sure if that had anything to do with it but figured I'd add the info here in case anyone else has problems.
