Hello ,

If we have an entity class A and it has a property of type entity class B. On the DTO back out to view, how do we provide capability to sort on non-key fields of class B. By default, sorting/flitering works if the user sorts/filter on a column that exists on entity A, but not on entity class B.

Thanks, Sai

    Hi,

    This is actually not related to ABP. So, you may find better answers on Stackoverflow. Have you tried to create a LINQ with join and order by ?

    Thanks . I figured it out

    if class B looks like public class B { public string Name {get; set;} }

    public class A { public B B1 {get; set;} }

    set ISortedResultRequest.Sorting = "B1.Name ASC" , thebackend is able to add that to the query
