    I have a Keno Grid,  when first launched, it should be sorted on one column by descending order. How can achieve it? Is there any configuration parameters to set?

    I also need to have the grid's sort property established on the initial page request. The link provided below show's how to invoke the "sort" method of the data source but not how to pre-configure the datastore or grid to already have an initial sorted field. I'm sure it can be done but don't see how based on this link. Can you provide more info?

    Default sorting should be defined in the datasource configuration. 

    You could check documentation at this adress: https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/data/datasource/configuration/sort#sort

     

    Example : 

    var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
      data: [
        { name: "Jane Doe", age: 30 },
        { name: "John Doe", age: 33 }
      ],
      sort: { field: "age", dir: "desc" }
    });
