Hi experts,

NAV2013R2 introduced a very nice feature to allow sorting by field on pages. however, as we all know, exceptions are always there. I need to disable this functionality on a certain page for one field so users are not able to sort by that and thus, cause some other issues.

How can I disable the auto sorting on the field?

Thank you!

    Not possible yet I think.
    Searched for it couple of month ago, but could not find it.
    Just tell the users don't do that if you don't need it.
    What's the problem when they use that sorting?

    You could try to use a function in SourceExpr on the columns you don't want to filter on. And let that function return the field you need te display. You cannot filter on functions.
