Does anyone know how to sort values within a custom record list field by alphabetical order instead of created date?

I really need to know this too

Hi @Ryan Finnerty. Are you referencing a custom list in the select field of your custom record or a standard list?

@Patrick Lee Hi Patrick! To me, it isn’t classified as a custom list because it’s not just a list of values. I say custom “record” list because the list of values belong to custom records of their own. I know how to sort values in a custom list but not sure if it’s possible via a list of custom records.

We’re talking about custom record types, not custom lists. Custom List you can choose to order by alphabetical. This feature isn’t there for Custom Records.

Not ideal, and I'd love a proper solution, but you can definitely do this via the User Event script route (in beforeLoad, add custom drop down, populate it in alphabetical order, hide the original. Then populate the original with the selected value(s) in beforeSubmit)

Set Options
popup when setting Item Options on a line in a transaction
