Sort oder job history

[FrancWest]

Hi,

Case #07423707

with V8 even with the latest patch it appears that the history job sort order is broken. When you go to the history tab, the job list is sorted randomly. You have to click on for example the 'start time' column every time in order to get the list sorted. I haven't seen this behavior in previous versions as far as I know. According to support this is by design, but I doubt that. Can anyone confirm?

Franc.

Hi Franc,

I remember encountering this behavior in versions V7 and V7a.
Let me ask our team to take a look into it.

Best regards,
Fabian

Hi Franc

Thank you again. We will update the sort order in one of the upcoming patches.
Our goal is to make it sorted by "Start Time - descending," just as we have it in VBR.
I believe this should address your question.

Best regards,
Fabian

Can you also add the option to search on Organization name within this same window? Right now you can only search on job name

Hi Fabian,

Thanks, but wouldn’t it be better to have the same functionality as in VBR? That console ‘remembers’ the sort order you have chosen between console sessions and doesn’t revert to a default sort order everytime.

I think the best would be a combination of default sorting plus the ability to keep the user sorting choice. I cannot promise to deliver it soon, but will certainly consider these improvements for the next releases.

Thanks!

Hi,

ok, thanks. But why is the sort order random now? Is that an oversight during development or a bug?

[Polina]

To me, it looks like a bug. The funny thing is that this behavior was there and unnoticed for several versions already
