Previously in 8.0.0.2 we would sort the field names in order when using the Dimension/Measure (Logical) view by clicking on the List view, clicking the header to sort the field names, and then clicking back on Logical. The field names would still be in alphabetical order in the Logical groupings.

We upgraded to 8.0.0.5 and now this no longer works. When we go back to Logical they are all in the order of how it is in the synonym. Our users are getting frustrated because they are used to finding their fields easily in alphabetical order logically. With reporting objects with over 100 fields it isn't always easy to find what you are looking for if they aren't in order.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Thanks!

Hi rfosnaugh,

If you click on the name, does it then sort properly?

Thanks and regards,

Kathryn

Clicking on the name sorts fine in the List view, but clicking back so see the fields in the Logical (Dimension/Measures) puts them back into the natural order of the synonym.

8.0.0.2 kept the fields in alphabetical order when going back to the Logical view.
