Sorting with project status, Active, completed, not started

Shashank

Hi, I'm trying to sort the projects by status. I need the report to list first 'Active' projects, then 'Not Started' and at the end 'Completed'. But when I use sort ascending, it shows 'Active' project then 'Completed' and then 'Not started'.

Can anyone help to get the sorting done as per the need. Active > Not Started > Completed.

Hi,

I hope you're well and safe!

You need to either add 01, 02, A, B in front of the Status options or add a so-called helper with the same or similar and sort using that.

Make sense?

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
