[Workflowtoolkit-l] ILLiad Request Tables

[SHORT Rachael]

Yes! That can be done. Just add orderBy="TransactionNumber DESC" at the
end. That translates to 'Transaction Number Descending', so the largest
numbers -- which are normally the newest requests -- are at the top. 
 
Here's my full string: 

<#TABLE name="ViewAllRequests" headerText="All Requests"
noDataAction="ShowMessageRow" noDataMessage="No Requests"
column="TransactionNumber:Click number for details" column="Title"
column="Author" column="TransactionStatus:Status"
orderBy="TransactionNumber DESC">

	Sorry, I should clarify...

	 

	I am working on the layout of the patrons' online ILLiad
account.  When they login and click on "View all Requests" (or any other
of the tables) the requests are displayed from oldest to newest.  For
patrons who have a lot of request, this is a very long list for them to
scroll through to get to their latest requests.  I'd like to find a way
for the tables to display the transactions in opposite order by default
so that the patrons don't have to scroll.  I'm wondering if there's
something I can change in this line or script or somewhere else:  

	 

	 <#TABLE name="ViewAllRequests" headerText="My ILL Requests
(ALL)" noDataAction="ShowMessageRow" noDataMessage="No Requests"
column="TransactionNumber:View/Edit Transaction"
column="DocumentType:Type" column="Title" column="Author"
column="TransactionStatus:Status">

	 

	Thanks for your help!

	Hello Alison, 

	 

	If you click on the TN column heading, it should re-order them
newest to oldest, or click on any column heading to sort by that column.


	 

	Hope that helps, best wishes,

	 

	Cyril

	Has anyone found a way to reverse the order of requests as
displayed in the tables in the patron's account?  We would like the
newest transactions to be at the top and the oldest at the bottom.  That
would mean that the transaction numbers need to display in reverse
order.
