Allow Sorting Property on Lists

Angelos Kontos on 5/6/2019 6:06:17 PM
It would be very useful to be able to define if a specific column can be sorted or not.
In case a list contains flowfields (e.g. Amount on Customer Ledger Entries), the user can choose to sort the list producing heavy workloads on the SQL server.
An AllowSort property can solve the issue maintaining flexibility at the same time.

This is only a problem if the user does not know that there is a heavy workload.
Sometimes you want to sort Customers by Balance even if there is a heavy workload.
But the user has to know that, probably as a warning or confirm.
