How do i sort records inside a sub-summary sort?

[pleiades]

Hi,

I have a List View part Sub-Summary when sorted by ProductType for example Mobile Phones, Headphones.

When I sort by ProductType, I get this list

Mobile Phones

       Apple Iphone 7 

       Apple Iphone 7s 

Headphones

       Apple Airpods

       Beats Headphones

 

What I would like to do is sort the records inside the Sub-Summary ProductType without breaking the Sub-Summary ProductType.

 

Mobile Phones

      Apple Iphone 7s

       Apple Iphone 7       

Headphones

      Beats Headphones

       Apple Airpods

 

My idea is to add a number field to the record  but the Sub-Summary is lost when I add the number field to the sort

 

Mobile Phones

      Apple Iphone 7s  |     1

       Apple Iphone 7    |   2  

Headphones

      Beats Headphones   |  1

       Apple Airpods           |  2

 

Thanks

you need to change the sub summary on the layout  to that of the new number field.

Then sorting by the ProductType isn't necessary you are sorting by Category and ProductTypeNumber.
