At some point in the past the sorting of patron search results in circulation (checkout and placing holds) changed from being sorted by name to being sorted by card number. I think sorting by name is more useful in these interfaces.
Created attachment 51792 [details] [review] Bug 16462 - Change default sorting of circulation patron search results to patron name This patch changes the default sort of patron quick search results from the circulation header search or when searching for a patron during the hold process. To test: In Circulation: - Perform a search by name for a patron which will return multiple search results. - Confirm that the results are sorted by patron name. In the catalog: - Locate and place a hold on a title. - When prompted to select a patron to place the hold for, perform a search by name which will return multiple results. - Confirm that the results are sorted by patron name.
