Etext template sorting by a paymentpriority(a number field)

edited Dec 25, 2019 4:00AM in BI Publisher (MOSC) 13 commentsAnswered

I have updated one of our payment related etext templates as follows after adding a new field for payment priority.

The sorting by payment priority seems to be happen but it looks like it considers the field as a text field.

Therefore 45 is placed before 9 as the first char 4 is smaller than 9.

Can you please help me to fix this so that "PaymentPriority" is sorted as a number type?

Thanks!

Howdy, Stranger!
