Custom Sort Order on grid column

[Venkat]

There is one requirement where I need to sort column data on custom order. by default kendo grid support either ascending or descending order. is there any work around where I can sort data by custom order.

i.e. there is status column in the grid and data is grouped by this column and its possible values are -  Critical (1), Suspect(2) and ok (0) and the requirement is data should be sorted like Suspect, ok and critical. this order is neither ascending or descending (by status name or status id).

Thanks,

Dharmesh

Hello Dharmesh,

You can define a custom compare function where you can specify how the information in a column should be sorted.
