Sorting on a metadata column
I need to be able to sort (date order) a managed metadata column in SharePoint online. Is this possible? I haven't been able to figure it out.
Hi
Where do you need to do the sorting? Are we talking in a web part or perhaps in a library?

Thanks for responding! Where I need to sort is in a document library and the metadata column is multiple lines of text. From what I've seen, that is one of the fields you can't sort on, although I certainly don't understand why. We have been filling in descriptions, beginning with a date, hoping to use the ability to sort to create a chronology. If you have any "secret tips," I'd love to hear!
ConnieH_456 as far as I can recall it has never been possible to sort on a managed metadata column.
