Disabling Sort on List Columns

The DisableSort list column user property specifies whether a user can sort a result set on a list column. It prevents the user and the Siebel query engine from sorting data that is not indexed. The value for this user property must include a Boolean value. If TRUE, then Siebel CRM does the following:

• Disables sort on the list column.
• Does not display the sort icons or tool tips in the list column header.
• Does not display the field in the Advanced Sort window.

For example, if you set the DisableSort user property of the Name list column to TRUE, then Siebel CRM does the following:

• Does not display the sort icons or Sortable tool tip in the Name list column.
• Does not display the Name field in the Advanced Sort window.
• If a user attempts to sort on the Name field, then it displays an error message. For more information, see Disabling Sort on Business Component Fields.

You can configure Siebel CRM to deactivate this user property, modify the value for it, or if an instance of it is not already defined, then to create a new instance of it.
