Andrew, newer first, right?
Oh, sorry, I didn't specify. In 19.11, they sort oldest to newest.

Testing notes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Before applying the patch I couldn't figure out the default order that suggestions were sorting in, it wasn't by date and it wasn't by title. After applying the patch it now sorts by date by default, with the latest suggestions at the top of the list (that is, sorting by date with the latest/newest suggestions first). SQL statements (on koha-testing-docker - koha-mysql kohadev to get into the database): - select * from suggestions; - update suggestions set suggesteddate="YYYY-MM-DD" where suggestionid="#"; - where YYYY-MM-DD is the new date, and # is the suggestionid in the database

Works as intended now, I think newest or oldest is the 'best' order in this case as opposed to the opposite. No regressions and passes QA scripts. Passing QA
Andrew, can you confirm you agree with the order?
I do not agree with the change in order. We should return to what it did previously (oldest to newest). That's the behavior librarians have come to expect and the behavior folks have specifically asked to return to. An option to change that could be added in a subsequent enhancement if desired.
Is it possible to use DataTables functionality like many of our other tables? Then if a different sort order is wanted then this lets staff decide what they want. I'm not sure how difficult this is to setup though... I'm assuming the workflow would be to review the oldest suggestions first, so having them first makes sense to me.

Patch modified. (In reply to David Nind from comment #11) > Is it possible to use DataTables functionality like many of our other > tables?

You can set a "default sort" column, but it will be "asc" (see Acquisition > basket on admin/columns_settings.pl). There is no way to modify the order (asc/desc).
