3251709 - Ascending Order Is Not Working in Custom UI

Symptom

When filtering in the UI by ascending order the filter does not display correctly

Environment

  • SAP Business ByDesign
  • SAP Cloud Applications Studio

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In the UI Designer the "Sort Option" is set to "Ascending Order"
  2. Access the UI
  3. Navigate to the custom EC
  4. Select a field that you would like to filter by
  5. Select "Ascending Order"
  6. The displayed values are not shown in the expected order and are instead all mixed

Cause

 The frontend data model has lists nested within lists. The lists that are nested within the parent list are not being hit via the backend as they are not supported.

Resolution

Nested datalists do not work with filters like Ascending Order. This is a system limitation.
