## Summary Lets users choose which sub-field of a composite column to sort by — directly from the sort chip — by clicking the sub-field label and picking from a dropdown. Persists per view via a new nullable \`subFieldName\` column on \`ViewSort\`. Replaces #20438, which proposed a field-settings (admin) configuration for the same problem. The chip-level approach is more discoverable (the option lives where the user is looking) and per-view, so different views on the same object can sort by different sub-fields. ### What changes for users - **FullName columns**: previously sorted by \`firstName\` and \`lastName\` together as a stable dual-key sort. Now the user can pick which sub-field is primary (the other is the tie-breaker). Default remains \`firstName\` primary, \`lastName\` tie-breaker. - **Address columns**: previously not sortable at all (not in \`SORTABLE_FIELD_METADATA_TYPES\`). Now sortable, with a chip dropdown listing each enabled sub-field. Default is \`addressCity\` if enabled, else the first enabled sub-field. Disabling a sub-field at the field-metadata level (existing setting) removes it from the dropdown. - **Other composite types** (Currency, Phones, Emails, Links, Actor) and scalar fields keep their existing single-key sort behavior. ### UX ``` ┌─────────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ ↑ Name · Last name ✕ │ │ ↑ Address · City ✕ │ └────────┬────────────────┘ └────────┬────────────────┘ ▼ (click sub-field) ▼ ┌────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ First name │ │ Address 1 │ │ Last name ✓│ │ Address 2 │ └────────────┘ │ City ✓│ │ State │ │ Postcode │ │ Country │ └────────────┘ ``` The chip body still toggles direction on click — the \`Dropdown\`'s internal wrapper calls \`stopPropagation\` so the sub-field click doesn't bubble to the chip's onClick. ## What changed **Backend:** - \`ViewSortEntity\` — new nullable \`subFieldName: varchar\` column - \`ViewSortDTO\`, \`CreateViewSortInput\`, \`UpdateViewSortInputUpdates\` — new \`@Field(() => String, { nullable: true })\` - \`FLAT_VIEW_SORT_EDITABLE_PROPERTIES\` — \`'subFieldName'\` added so the property flows through the update merge path - \`ALL_ENTITY_PROPERTIES_CONFIGURATION_BY_METADATA_NAME.viewSort\` — new \`subFieldName\` entry with \`toCompare: true\` so cache diffs notice it - \`fromCreateViewSortInputToFlatViewSortToCreate\` — threads \`subFieldName\` through - Instance command migration (\`add-sub-field-name-to-view-sort\`) — single \`ALTER TABLE core.viewSort ADD subFieldName varchar\` / \`DROP\` **Frontend:** - \`RecordSort\` and \`ViewSort\` types — \`subFieldName?: string | null\` - \`VIEW_SORT_FRAGMENT\` — adds \`subFieldName\` so the field round-trips - \`mapRecordSortToViewSort\` + \`areViewSortsEqual\` — carry the new field through, include it in the diff so the usual \`useSaveRecordSortsToViewSorts\` create/update flow fires when it changes - \`useSaveRecordSortsToViewSorts\` — passes \`subFieldName\` in both \`CreateViewSortInput\` and \`UpdateViewSortInputUpdates\` - \`getOrderByForFieldMetadataType(field, direction, subFieldName?)\` — new optional third arg. \`turnSortsIntoOrderBy\` threads \`sort.subFieldName\` into it. - \`Address\` added to \`SORTABLE_FIELD_METADATA_TYPES\` - New helpers: \`getEnabledAddressSubFields\` (filters by the field's \`subFields\` setting, falls back to the 6 default visible address sub-fields), \`getDefaultSortSubFieldForAddress\`, \`getDefaultSortSubFieldForFullName\` - New shared types/constants: \`AllowedFullNameSubField\`, \`ALLOWED_FULL_NAME_SUBFIELDS\`, \`DEFAULT_VISIBLE_ADDRESS_SUBFIELDS\` - \`SortOrFilterChip\` — new \`labelSubField?: ReactNode\` slot; renders as \` · {sub-field}\` with subdued weight after the main label - \`EditableSortChip\` — builds options from field metadata (\`ALLOWED_FULL_NAME_SUBFIELDS\` for FullName, \`getEnabledAddressSubFields\` for Address), uses i18n-wrapped labels, persists picks via \`upsertRecordSort\` ## Test plan - [x] \`npx nx typecheck\` passes for twenty-shared, twenty-front, twenty-server - [x] \`oxlint --type-aware\` on all 19 frontend + 9 server changed files: 0 errors - [x] \`prettier --check\`: clean - [x] 16 unit tests pass — \`getOrderByForFieldMetadataType\` covers the new \`subFieldName\` override branch for FULL_NAME and ADDRESS; \`getDefaultSortSubFieldForAddress\` covers the city/first-enabled fallback path; \`getDefaultSortSubFieldForFullName\` exercises its constant - [ ] Manual: sort a People view by Full Name → click the chip's sub-field label → switch between First name and Last name → reload page → choice is preserved - [ ] Manual: sort a Company view by Address → confirm dropdown lists only enabled sub-fields → disable Address \`addressCity\` in field settings → confirm dropdown options update and runtime falls back to the first enabled sub-field 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-authored-by: claude[bot] <41898282+claude[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
