Update all views sort order in a list using powershell

I have a column "Employee Name" in my Lists/Library of my sitecollection ,
I need to update Sort order of all views of that  lists and library to be sort alphabetically by "Employee Name" .
I have already some filters applied on these views.I dont want these to get effected.I want to change only the sort order to be based on "Employee Name" column.
Any pointers on how to achieve this by Powershell will be helpful

Hi,
The following PowerShell script for your reference:
$webURL = "http://siteurl";
$listName = "ListName";
$web = Get-SPWeb $webURL;
$list = $web.Lists[$listName];
$views= $list.Views;
for ($i = 0; $i -lt $views.Count; $i++)
$view=$views[$i];
$view.Query = '<OrderBy><FieldRef Name="Employee_x0020_Name"/></OrderBy>';
$view.Update();
$list.Update();

    A ListItem has its own unique row id so in all likelihood, an insert with the same data will result in a new list entry. The Lists Web Service however, has an UpdateListItem method which will take an update request. [refer

  • What sort order does address book use?

    I'm trying to be able to sort things "after" the alphabet in a standard address book "sort by name" sort order. So aA to zZ then other stuff. In a standard ASCII sort, ~ would work - but that's been changed in Thunderbird.
    So far I've been trying to find out what comes after "Z" in the sort order, but have been unable to do so.
    It's not following ANY standard sort order that I've been able to determine.
    It's sorting 0xF7 (÷) in front of 0x5A (Z). It's even sorting Unicode U+FEFC *before* U+005A in an "ascending" order??
    Was the standard sort order hacked so that anything that isn't alphabetical comes first, which means that if I want to have something sort after "Z" I HAVE to use zz or zzz instead of what works in every other program I use? Even ~ sorts before the alphabet, yet even in standard ASCII it sorts after.
    Anyone know of an add-on that fixes this "helpful" hack and gives me a predictable, dependable, and above all documented sort order?

    I think my only comment at this point can be "my, that escalated quickly!!".
    Thanks for the pointers and information. Unfortunately, I'm now lost in too much mostly incomprehensible information. However, the tr03.pdf doc you provided I think had the answer.
    If I understand it correctly, this (new to me) sorting mechanism means that nothing comes after Z any more? (based on the PDF file you gave me, part 3.0 intro, order of characters). Is that correct?
    Actually, I think I'd consider this "solved", or at least "answered".
    Thank you.

  • How to add a certificate to IIS global "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell?

    Hi, been surfing the web for an example on how to add a certificate to the "global" IIS "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell but to no luck. I already have code in place on how to tie / associate a specific website with a specific cert but not how
    to add the new .cer file using the "Complete Certificate Request..." wizard using PowerShell.... I dont expect the final code to become published but if someone had an idea on howto integrate / get an entry point on where to interact between the "Server Certificate"
    list in IIS and POSH I would be super happy! :|
    I am runnign IIS on a Windows 2008R2 x64 Standard Edition if that helps..... of course, I would saddle for an CLI if there is no other way, but POSH is of course the way to go! :)
    Thanks for the help in advance guys, take care!

    Hi and thanks for the suggestions!
    Although it comes close, the suggested code example points on howto import / incorporate .pfx files - I am getting fed by .cer files which I need to add into the IIS console using POSH.
    I tried explore the IIS.CertObj object but was not able to work out if this one could be used for importing / adding .cer files into IIS! However, launching the following command from a POSH console with Import-Module Webadministration already
    loaded into that shell;
    $certMgr = New-Object -ComObject IIS.CertObj returns the following error message:
    New-Object : Cannot load COM type IIS.CertObj

  • Calendar List View Sort Order

    If I have two appointments set to the same time and length on the calendar, the sort order on the "month" view is sorted based on the title (this is great and what I am looking for). If I go to the "day" view or the "list" view the sort order appears to be random. I have tried to figure out what the sort order is for the list view and the day view but no luck.
    I am using a second calendar in Outlook for tasks and setting all items to the same time and length. I can then create a task list that syncs to the iphone. Just can't get the sorting figured out.

    Hi,
    I have the same issue since one week ago (iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.0.2).
    Only 2 calendars on my Exchange mailbox are synced. Items show correctly on the day and month view, but in list view (which I use most), some of them appear under a wrong date. Annoying !
    After restart and/or remove/add of calendars, list view takes a long time to 'load'. switching to day view and the back to list makes it appear (but unfortunately with the same problem).

  • All Projects view - Sort Order

    Is there a way of changing the sort order of the All Projects view - either to name order, or custom rather than the way it seems at the moment - time of project creation from oldest to newest?
    Jason

    I am also looking for a way to do this. When you have 300 projects, it's annoying to always have to scroll down to the bottom every time you click into projects view. I wonder if there is a hidden preference or something like that. Can anybody help?

  • Category List/Tree View Sort Order

    What determines the sort order for the folders in the Category/Tree view Lists?
    I have two machines both at SP1 FP3, one displays Favorites and then Add-Ons, the other displays Favorites and then Charts, with Add-Ons coming at the bottom of the list.
    Any ideas, another registry fix?
    Thanks
    Charles

    Hi pianoboyCoder,
    You could loop the treeNodes in the treeView. then move the Node whose text begin with "Red" to bottom.
    I wrote a test program for you. you could refer to .
    int upper = this.treeView1.Nodes.Count;
    TreeNode Temp;
    for (int Outer = upper-1; Outer >= 1; Outer--)
    for (int Inner = 0; Inner <= Outer-1; Inner++)
    if (treeView1.Nodes[Inner].Text.StartsWith("Red"))
    Temp = treeView1.Nodes[Inner];
    treeView1.Nodes[Inner] = treeView1.Nodes[Inner + 1];
    treeView1.Nodes[Inner + 1] = Temp;
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.

  • List Views - Update all views on mass.

    Hi
    I have a Sharepoint List which has a large number of Views set up to allow different teams to work with the data contained and not run the risk of impacting on each other's data.
    I've now had to add 2 new columns onto the List which are needed on each view.  Is there a nice simple way (i.e no coding) of doing this within Sharepoint 2010 on mass rather than having to go into each one and select the new columns?
    Cheers

    You can try using powershell

  • IDCS5 Win: Panel Tree View sort order

    Hello everyone:
    I have a panel tree view that is displaying document names in a backward sort order.   When I say that I mean that the sort order is as so:
    5
    4
    3
    2
    1
    as opposed to
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    I have stepped through the code and in the Adapter, they are geting placed into the string list in the latter order i.e. 1,2,3,4,5).  What could be causing this reverse sort order?
    R,
    John

    Yes, if the Track Number field is empty in the File Info dialog, for all files in the Files panel, then Audition will revert to "Recent Access" sorting.
    There is no relationship between this File Info: Track Number, and the track number you see in the CD View.
    I understand your confusion. However, note that it is possible to add the same file (from the Files panel) to the CD View track list. So imagine you have "My Song.wav" in the Files panel. And then added it to the CD view track list at track positions 1, 3, and 5. If we were to sort the Files panel by track number as they appear in the CD View, then which track would be associated with "My Song.wav"? Track 1, 3, or 5?
    This feature was added primarily as an enhancement to the typical CD ripping (File > Extract Audio From CD) workflow. After ripping audio tracks, the resulting files that appear in your Files panel will be tagged with a Track Number. It is usually handy to sort by this CD track title rather than by filename or other sorting option.

  • CS6 Icon View Sort Order

    Is there a way to change the sort order in Icon view?   I want it to adheire to what ever sort order I had in column view, so that i can see clips from multiple cameras in timecode order next to each other, but instead I seem to get all the clips from one camera, then the next camera and so on.  
    It's making it almost useless for skimming through clips in chronological order from multiple cameras.
    What am I missing?
    Is this yet 'another' feature request I'm going to have to make?

    I don't think I'd have it set up to select clips, I just can't think of a situation where I'd want some items in a bin organised but others not. Right click on background of bin  with a contextual menu. Mosty I'd want to sort by name, timecode, online/offline, and possibly codec (for splitting up proxies versions from camera originals). People could always copy their bin before sorting it, so they could have one organised as a storyboard and another organised in... well... a good way, is how I'd put it!
    What if the items on the contextual menu were definied by the list headings a user had set up in List View? That way if someone had some strange criteria they needed to sort by they could add it, but would also be able to keep the length of the menu in check if needed? Customisable yet contained.
    And definitely the ability to add keyboard shortcuts for the various sort functions. More keyboard shortcuts in general please! Track patching would be great. And there's a lot of functions that need the particular panel they relate to to be highlighted before the keyboard shortcut works.... I would LOVE if this went away. If I hit the key for Toggle All Target Video On, I pretty much want it to just turn on the target video, and I'd really love it to do it without having to click on the sequence first. Lots of examples of this sort of thing, basically anything that's a "panel" function. Some of it is just kooky, for example I have "Source Clip: Previous" mapped as a shortcut key. When I hit this key, of course it relates to the Source monitor! Having to bring up the source monitor AND THEN hit the keyboard shortcut is just unnecessarily cumbersome, and often ends up in a situation where it's not just an extra keystroke, it's several extra keystrokes because you end up having to bring up a panel to do a function, and then bring up the previous panel to be able to continue what you were doing. Lots of extra keystrokes that I think could easily be made more efficient. I've submitted a request for this as well, I called it Keyboard Shortcuts Should Always Work. (Sorry, kind of wandered off topic there).

  • Sort order of Price Lists

    My customer has recently upgraded from 2007A PL 42 to 8.81 PL 7. Before upgrade all pricelists are
    displayed in item code sort order. After upgrade, the sort order seems almost random.
    Customer maintains 175 different pricelists (mainly supplier pricelists) Customer needs to look up an
    item price from a specific price list - goes to Inventory / Price lists / Price Lists, selects the required
    price list and double clicks on the row number which then displays itemcodes, item descriptions, base
    price and unit price.
    Before upgrade, the customer could immediately start typing the item code and quickly get the required
    price. Now they must resort the displayed list by item code first, then start typing the item code.
    Process that used to be quick now takes more time. Customer can't understand why something that
    was working well for them has been changed to make life difficult
    At first I thought that the lists were now being sorted by description but the order changes even when
    double clicking at the top of the description column.
    Customer would like an option as to how they want the list displayed or for it to go back to how it was.
    Customer's sales reps need to find prices quickly - can't understand why the sort order has changed

    This did the trick for me, Harry. Thanks!
    I was surprised to see you can/must set this on a podcast-by-podcast basis, but it is hard to argue with having finer control. Oldest to newest seems like a slightly more logical default, but that may just be personal preference.
    Not to split off in a new direction, but if I then subscribe to a podcast in Podcasts app that I already subscribe to in iTunes, is it recommended I turn off syncing between iTunes and my iPhone for that podcast? Or will this question basically go away when iOS 6.0 is released?
    Do the Podcasts app and the Music/iPod app share podcast files? Or will they be duplicated on my iPhone?
    Tom
    The podcasts will duplicate themselves on your device. I turned off podcast syncing on my devices. But the weird thing is that when I sync, podcasts then copy themselves to my iTunes library. Either sync or don't, but don't copy to both.

  • BOBJ 6.5 - Infoview - Bespoke Document View Sort Orders

    Hi,
    Can anyone confirm if it is possible to define a custom sort order of the documents displayed under corporate documents e.g. name asc and date desc and independantly the categories defined within with different sort orders. Obviously document naming conventions may be the way to go without - but I am looking at a legacy where there is no consistency, changes are required and if there is short-path to a solution. Any help appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Ted!
    Thanks for the reply and suggestions.  I don't know if there is a different version of the viewers folder that I should be using but I am using the ones from this folder:
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\crystalreportviewers12
    That said, I didn't see anything amiss in Fiddler and when I looked in Firebug at the script portion where it was constructing the FlexParameterUI panel, I could see where it was capturing the report parameter names and prompts.  I decided to rip out all the parameters out of my report and voila, it loaded up fine in the viewer.
    I then added a new string parameter giving it a simple short name (Test1) and, initially, I did not use this parameter in the report.  It loaded up in the viewer just fine too.
    I then added the parameter to the report header and I was back to the same problem - it would not load in the viewer and the error was the same as the subject line shows.
    For the record, I am using Crystal Reports 2008 v12.2.0.290
    So is there some other crystalreportviewers12 that I should be using?
    Kind regards,
    Evan

  • Custom Sort Order in Dropdown list of translate values

    Peoplesoft sorts the dropdown translate values in ascending order by default. I wanted to change the sort order. For example:
    The translate values in alphabetic order are:
    Andrea
    Baluch
    Others
    Shumi
    I want this "Others" as the last value. So the drop down should display like this:
    Andrea
    Baluch
    Shumi
    Others

    From a document I had created ...
    This odd behavior of PeopleTools however can be overridden by implementing a few lines of JavaScript and PeopleCode.
    The approach is quite simple and summarized briefly as below:
    1.     Concatenate the value-description pairs of the dropdown list into a single string separated by a pipe “|” as delimiter (in case other delimiter is used the script shown below in Step 4 has
    to be accordingly modified) in the sequence in which it should be displayed on the page.
    2.     While concatenating, make sure to place the value first and then the description, these being separated by the delimiter. Example: “01|”|”January”|”02|”February” …and so on.
    3.     Pass this string as a parameter to an HTML definition through a GetHtmlText function. This HTML definition in turn will a have a JavaScript logic to resolve this delimited string into
    meaningful value-description pairs and use them to override the intended dropdown list.
    Below are the steps in detail:
    Step 1:
    Find out the html element-id for the dropdown field from the html source-code of the PeopleSoft page from the browser. In HTML, the tag for a dropdown field is <select> </select>
    The element-id is set by the id attribute of the <select> tag. This id would be used in Step 5.
    Step 2:
    Add a field of type Long Character to any work record that you may be using on your page for buttons, hyperlinks, etc.
    Step 3:
    Add an HTML-Area to the page (preferably alongside the dropdown field which needs need to be sorted). In the properties of the HTML-Area, assign the Record-field used in Step 2 above.
    Step 4:
    Create a HTML definition from the app-designer and add the below JavaScript code to it and save the definition.
    <script>
    var j=0;
    var str=new String('%bind(:2)');
    ar1=str.split("|");
    var fld = document.getElementById("%bind(:1)");
    fld.options.length = 0;
    fld.options[fld.options.length] = new Option('', '');
    while (j<ar1.length)
              fld.options[fld.options.length] = new Option(ar1[j+1], ar1[j]);                      
                    j=j+2;
    </script>
    Step 5:
    Write peoplecode on an appropriate event to generate the concatenated string of value-descriptions delimited by a pipe “|”. A pseudocode for the same is shown below. Here the HTML id for the dropdown field and the value-description string are passed as parameters to the JavaScript shown in Step 4; and JavaScript thus created after substitution of the Bind values is assigned to the value of Record.Field used in Step 2 & 3. The location of the below peoplecode may vary depending on the when the dropdown list needs to be sorted.
    Local string &strDropdownValues;
    &strDropdownValues = "1|" | "January|" | "2|" | "February|" | "3|" | "March|" | "4|" | "April|" | "5|" | "May|" | "6|" | "June";
    <Record.Field>.Value = GetHTMLText(<HTML.DPS_DROPDOWN_HTML>, "<DROPDOWN_ID>", &strDropdownValues);

  • Change in maintanence view sort order

    I have a requirement where i need to change the sort order of the way the data is displayed in the view.
    Ex if the primary key has A,B,C and D. the data is sorted in the order A,B,C and D but i need to show the sorted data as per B,C and D without changing the key of the table.The client want use a variant. can someone tell where in the screen can i change the code for this.
    Thanx

    I don’t think so , There’ll be any setting in table. What you can do , you can go to table Maint. generator -> Modification and in source code you can sort on the basis of user requirement .
    This is the only possibility I can think of ...
    Hope this’ll help you .
