Date and Time filtering and sorting

When using FAZ to view the list of entries the Date and Time columns are separate.
Combining them into one timestamp field would save us filtering twice each time we want to see a specific timeframe and would make sorting much easier.
Moreover, it would be very good if that field could be filtered not only by character masks but by the date value using ,'<', '>', '<=', 'between' etc. symbols.
Currently a 300117 date is "Bigger" then 010217 which makes no sense in sorting.
With separate fields it's much harder to achieve.

    Hello,

    I just wanted to put a quick response on this RFE. Firstly I will look at the possibility of adding a combined date/time field as an new column in the Fault Entry display. Secondly I will also look at the possibility of filtering based on a date/time range but this is a more complex change than the combined field and so may be an extended delivery item.

    Also, with regards "Currently a 300117 date is "Bigger" then 010217 which makes no sense in sorting." I assume you have a LOCALE option specified which is causing the dates to be displayed as ddmmyy ? You can add the FADATE suboption to the LOCALE option that will force the date column to be yyyy/mm/dd which can then be more logically sorted eg: LOCALE(Da_DK.IBM-1047, FADATE) .

    Regards
