    • We collect Jira Service Desk feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Service Desk Server. Using JIRA Service Desk Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      For users with large Service Desk Queues, the ability to sort the queue on the fly by clicking a column header (as in the Issue Navigator List View) would be extremely beneficial.

            [JSDSERVER-298] Allow users to sort Queues on the fly

            I understand InTENSO are simply responding to a demand in the marketplace, I can scarcely fault them for that, but the notion of paying extra for absolutely basic functionality is truly galling when we consider the cost we're already paying for Jira Service Desk licenses.

            It feels like I've leased a car but it is missing a gear-stick. And there is someone that leases gear-sticks, with a stall in the very same marketplace, that just happens to be able to assist with this deficiency.  It is amazing how quickly the TCO seems to climb when third-party add-ons are needed to cover the most basic features. 

            EDIT: To be fair it does seem that the 'Queues for Jira Service Desk' app offers more than just being able to sort queues.

            The fact you are unable to sort a queue by date is hard to comprehend.

            Daniel Hrvatin added a comment - The fact you are unable to sort a queue by date is hard to comprehend.

            @Danny Archibald I think you're confusing being forced to use things a certain way, with what an ITSM tool should provide in terms of flexibility.

             

            Your use case might be valid for simple workflows and simpler service catalogues. Defining a different queue for various Asc/Desc ordering of fields is not only a painful process when dealing with multiple fields, but also a very static process when adding/removing fields.

            Also the width of the queues list is fixed, so don't even try setting up a proper description for a custom queue. "In Progress due in 24 H ASC" would get trimmed to "In Progress due in ...". Good luck understanding which queue is which!

             

            You mentioned filters, but those do not update automatically, those are some very static search results. So that defeats the purpose of the live queue, and sets you back to looking for emails or refreshing screens every few minutes. Also favorite filters are not even placed where it would make sense, but instead Atlasssian is imposing its own defined filters, which when talking about a ticketing system, don't make much sense either (why would I want to know issues reported by me as a technician, or recently viewed, or even done/resolved?).

            On the other hand, it's exactly filters I'd use if I'd really want to have a talk with a technician about his/her issues, and even more, create dashboards/reports based on, not queues.

            Regardless the use case, providing flexibility is what made Atlassian products great comparing to others. Not implementing something rather trivial like this live sorting (for customer portal too, but that's another story), in over 3 years since the request has been made, only damages Atlassian's image and our trust in them. Due to similar trivial improvements that Atlassian is refusing to implement, our company is actually looking at other vendors, for all its Atlassian products (we have Jira, Confluence, BitBucket, FishEye, Crucible and ServiceDesk + over 20 plugins just to provide workarounds and some decent-ish reporting), seeing Atlassian is not a reliable vendor, without a proper transparent roadmap (excluding ofc. strategic features).

            Hey all,

            I've been getting the comments on this since I started using JIRA and wanted to have this functionality.  I thought I'd put my two cents in after using JIRA Service Desk for several months now, and have decided I don't think they should make this change.

            Here's how I see it based on being the I.T. Manager over our Service Desk for a few months.

            1. The main queue's are set in stone.  Because of not being able to sort these, you can communicate easier about what's there because you are all seeing the same thing all the time.
            2. Each user can set up filters to see whatever they want and be able to sort the columns in those.  Filters can be set up to mimic the main queue's.  Anyone can set up filters and share them out to the entire team.

            So with all that in mind, I feel it makes sense to have things the way they are.  You have a standard view in the main queues that the admin/manager sets up to match how they want their teams workflow/priorities to go, and all the techs have the ability to create the filters they want/need with sorting functions.

            For instance, our main queue's are set up to show newest on top, and also "user" tickets on top, "internal" tickets on the bottom.  If sorting were possible, then anytime you go look at another techs screen with the same queue up, then it might look different, instead of say asking them to pull up the queue and it looks the same as the one you are looking at.

            Just my thoughts on it.  I thought it was crazy that this functionality wasn't there when we first started using this, but now it makes more sense to me.

            It boggles the mind that this sort of feature even needs to be requested - surely this is a basic usability feature when dealing with tabular results?  The fact that this still hasn't been implemented more than three years after this case was created is a little alarming.

            Its interesting to see the functionality on Jira, but not on JIRA help desk.  This should have been seamless as it was a duplication of standard functionality when JIRA service desk was built. If it exist in Straight Jira, then it should flow to JIRA service desk.

             

            Please get this done.  If it has already been done, please let me know when I can set that functionality.

            How is this honestly not a feature built in already. I am finding more and more that switching to JIRA Service Desk to be a mistake. Absolutely inexcusable to charge so much for a (I feel) Beta product that depends too highly on 3rd Party Add-ons.

            Not a good work around but one nonetheless - I have created a dashboard for the team's queues w/ filters. It is a generic dashboard where the filters equate to assignee=current_user and there is also a filter to show unassigned which equates to issues that need to be triaged and assigned.

            Adding my supporting comment from JSD 2190. As an agent I would like to have the ability to sort by clicking on the column in a queue, which is then only local to my login and not change anything for anyone else.

            (As only admin can choose how tickets are ordered and once that's set the admin changing it would change it for all Agents).

            For instance be able to click on the Reporter field to group in ascending order, so I can easily and quickly see without having to go into JIRA and create a JQL search all of one reporters tickets. Or sort all the tickets by created date to quickly see which tickets came in first or last. Or sort by priority so I can see Highest at the top or Lowest. Having this flexibility would make me more efficient.

            Any ideas when this will be implemented?
