As a user of the mSupply inventory management system, you expect to be able to efficiently manage your stock by sorting items based on various criteria. However, you may have encountered an issue where sorting by Pack cost price or Total does not work as expected in the Inventory > View Stock section. This article aims to provide a detailed explanation of the problem, its expected behavior, and the steps to reproduce the issue.

As the title suggests, sorting stock by Pack cost price or Total does not work for both ascending (asc) and descending (desc) orders. This means that when you click on the sorting arrow of the columns Pack cost price or Total, you do not see the expected ordering of items from greater to smaller price or inversely.

The expected behavior is that sorting should work correctly, allowing you to view your stock items in either ascending or descending order based on the Pack cost price or Total.

To reproduce the behavior, follow these steps:

  1. Go to 'Inventory > View Stock'
  2. Click on the sorting arrow of the columns Pack cost price or Total
  3. Observe that there is no correct ordering of items, and the sorting does not work as expected

To provide more context, here are the details of your environment:

  • Open mSupply Version: v2.7.0RC5
  • Legacy mSupply Central Server Version: 8.01.12
  • Platform: omSupply Desktop, Android
  • Database type: SQLite

To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following:

  1. Check if the sorting functionality is working correctly for other columns in the Inventory > View Stock section.
  2. Verify that the Pack cost price and Total columns are correctly populated with data.
  3. Check if there are any database errors or issues that may be causing the sorting to fail.

If none of these troubleshooting steps resolve the issue, it is recommended to contact the mSupply support team for further assistance.
