Hi!
By default, sales (quotes) are sorted by sale state in the kanban view.
Unfortunatly, the order is not logical: in french, it's (from left to right: new quote, validaded quote, sent quote). I would prefer: new, sent, validated !!
I search for hours and it's not possible. I tried to rename / change the order of the default stats but it's locked or change nothing.
I also think about add a "tag" and the sort the kanban by tag... but it's a bit a lost of time to set a tag on each quote just to order them...
Thks for your help (note: i'm not a Python developer ;-)... just a normal end user)

Thks! Unfortunatly, I'm on the SaaS version...
I don't have access to the XML files

Thks for the suggestions @Cybrosys Techno Solutions Pvt.Ltd.
With Odoo Studio, I can only choose the GROUPBY in the Kanban view (I set it to STAGE) but the sort-order is for the sales under each stage... not for the stage themself.
I think I will create an automation on each sales step change to set a basic TAG and then change the Kanban view to group-by the TAGS.
A crazy workarround... but I hope it will do the job.
Hi Jean,
What you’re running into is a common limitation of Odoo’s Kanban view: by default, it sorts records by the stage order, not alphabetically, and the stage order is defined in the Stage configuration. Here’s how you can fix it without Python:
1. Adjust the Stage Sequence
Go to Sales > Configuration > Quotation Stages (or Sales > Configuration > Sales Teams > Stages depending on your version).
You’ll see your stages: New, Sent, Validated (or in French: Nouveau, Envoyé, Validé).
Each stage has a Sequence number.
Lower numbers appear left in Kanban.
Set the sequence so it matches your desired order:
New / Nouveau → 1
Sent / Envoyé → 2
Validated / Validé → 3
Save and refresh the Kanban view.
This should reorder the Kanban columns exactly how you want, without touching tags or code.
