Audisho,

We keep adding functionality cause we're building a robust application around QB. I don't think it will be possible to re-build manually. I hope ETA doesn't take long.

Thanks,

Hi Marco,

We have a plan in our roadmap for migrating customization from Classic to New, but I can’t provide an ETA for when this will be available. If you would like to migrate sooner, you will need to re-build manually.

Hi Audisho,

I'll try the Build Selection list.

I understand that it will be very difficult to migrate from actual Method to New Method. We've done a lot of customization. Please give me an idea about this.

Thanks,

Hi Marco,

Dropdowns are sorted alphanumerically and unfortunately, you cannot specify otherwise. We understand that this is not ideal and the ability to sort dropdowns has been included in Method New and will be available when we launch.

How are you building the filter? Have you tried using the Build selection list option? I believe this option would be ideal since, as I understand it, you have a specific list of account numbers to be included.

I hope this helps.

Sort and filter Dropdowns

Marco — Fri, 22 May 2015 15:19:30 GMT

Is there a way to sort dropdown lists? I have a Accounts dropdown and I need to sort it by Account Number. If dropdowns could be seen in hierarchical view as well as flat view it would be great.

I also need to filter this Accounts dropdown and only include some accounts. It wouild include some asset accounts and some expense accounts. I am using Account numbers to filter and I get to filter all the asset accounts, but I'm having a hard time getting the selected expense accounts into the dropdown list.
