Hi guys,

What is the correct way to order the Kanban from projects?
The first thing I did was to add a default_order in the arch (project_view.xml) but this didn't change anything:

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="view_project_kanban">
            <field name="name">project.project.kanban</field>
            <field name="model">project.project</field>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <kanban class="oe_background_grey">
                   <kanban default_order="name" />
                  //irrelevant code

               </kanban>
            </field>

Then I went into project.py and found the method _get_type_common which orders the projects in kanban view. By default its like this:

def _get_type_common(self, cr, uid, context):
        ids = self.pool.get('project.task.type').search(cr, uid, [('case_default','=',1)], context=context)
        return ids
    _order = "sequence, id"
    //irrelevant code

So I thought I'd change the _order="sequence,id" to _order="name" but the field 'name' is not in the model project.project..So I thought I'd change it to this:

_order = "type_ids.name"

But then I get the following error:

AccessError

Invalid "order" specified. A valid "order" specification is a comma-separated list of valid field names (optionally followed by asc/desc for the direction) 

So, what is the correct way to order on the name of the project in the Kanban view then?

Update: New code now looks like this:

class project(osv.osv):
    _name = "project.project"
    _description = "Project"
    _inherits = {'account.analytic.account': "analytic_account_id",
                 "mail.alias": "alias_id"}
    _inherit = ['mail.thread', 'ir.needaction_mixin','project.project']
    _order = 'name asc'
    name = fields.char('Account/Contract Name', required=True, track_visibility='onchange')

With kind regards,

Yenthe
