How to sory by "Source" column of Documents section?

Hello,

How can I sort by "Source" column located in the Documents section of project?

Thanks,

DM

@deepama1 - the source column is done via text mode so it's not clickable. Something I verified with support a long time ago was that you can not set up default sorts through a "view" only in a report. Even if you added text mode in the column to try and force a sort, it just ignores it even though it looks like it accepts it.

 

Sadly, what you are trying to do isn't possible. 😞

    @kelliegardner Thank you. Yes, it looks like it has accepted the changes but, it totally ignores it. Thank you for confirming it.

      Deepa,

      These types of headings in views aren't typically clickable for sorting.  Within reports you can click the headings to change sorts.  You would likely need to edit this view and try to add a sort view textmode as I believe the Source field is done in textmode.
