N/A should not be considered greater than 0 when sorting on 'Elapsed Tran Time' attribute.

In panel KIPDEPS (IMS Dependent Regions) if we sort on the column 'Elapsed tran time' we see that dependent regions having an elapsed tran time equal to N/A are shown before regions having an elapsed time greater than 0.
We think it would be more appropriate if, when sorting in descending order, regions with an elapsed time of N/A are shown at the bottom, in order to see immediately in the first rows the regions that may have a problem pointed out by an high elapsed time.
In PMR 25614,311,758 supports first suggested to do a filter. This could be feasible in particular circumstances, but in standard situations we need to see everithing and sorting appropriately. They explained us that the reason is that field are sorted based on their unsigned binary value, both in E3270UI and in ITM.
But we need them to be sorted on their actual display value.

    Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
    Brand - Servers and Systems Software
    Product family - zSeries Software
    Product - Tivoli OMEGAMON XE on z/OS

    For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
    Brand - Tivoli
    Product family - Performance Monitoring
    Product - Tivoli OMEGAMON XE on z/OS

    .
    The TOM component does the sorting on behalf of its consuming agents. So setting Product to OMEGAMON XE for z/OS that owns that shared component.
