Hello , I am trying to sort my records in my tree view , I have a selection field called as _STATES when I try to sort my view according to that , it sorts in correctly, my code and details:

py code

_STATES = [
('1_draft', 'To - Do'),
('10_in_progress', 'In Progress'),
('20_approval', 'Approval'),
('30_closed', 'Closed'),
('40_cancelled', 'Cancelled')
]


state = fields.Selection(_STATES, 'State', required=True, default="1_draft"
)


XML Code

<tree string="Action">
<field name="name"/>
    <field name="state"/>
</tree>

When I click states field on my tree view to sort my records , it sorts them incorrectly.

The sorting my model makes:

1)10_in_progress

2)1_draft

3)20_approval

4)30_closed

5)40_cancelled


The sorting I want to have:

1)1_draft

2)10_in_progress

3)20_approval

4)30_closed

5)40_cancelled

Will it work if you change the first one to 01_draft?

As mentioned in the existing answers you are trying to sort according to the string. So better to give selection values in sort order. For example.


1)a_draft

2)b_in_progress

3)c_approval

4)d_closed

5)e_cancelled

You need to do customization for it. selection key values are string and it can not be sorted as per numbers. Another way you can assign a number to the records based on selection key and then you can easily do sorting base on that field.
