Modern UX, Cost Plan Dates May Be Out Of Order

Products

• Clarity PPM SaaS

Issue/Introduction

SUMMARY: The cost plan periods used on MUX are sorted by biz_com_period.id.  In some instances if the periods are created for a whole year the periods can get created out of chronological order making the records in MUX show not in chronological order.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 

    1. Go to Entity and Create Fiscal Periods
       a.  Enter the year
       b. Start Date:  1/1/YYYY
       c. Finish Date:  12/31/YYYY
2. Save and Return

 

Expected Results: Checking in the database on BIZ_COM_PERIODS the periods get created in order and the IDs are sequential.  
                  In MUX go to Financials for a project and click on New Plan
      The dialog pops up to choose your periods and the periods are in chronological order

Actual Results: The periods get created out of sequential order based on the IDs on BIZ_COM_PERIODS
                In MUX the cost plan periods are presented in BIZ_COM_PERIOD.ID order which can make them out of Fiscal Period chronological order.
               

Workaround: You can still find the periods they are just out of order.
