How can I sort without it affecting what my shared editor sees on her end?

I've given my office manager shared access to a base as an editor. We both work from this same base throughout the day. I like to sort some of the tables in the base a certain way depending on what I'm working on, but she doesn't need them sorted that way and I don't want the table to suddenly look different on her end if she needs the table to be sorted the way it normally is. If I sort a table, will she see it sorted that way on her end too?

The easiest solution is to create a duplicate view that you can use for customized sorting (or quick queries).  Sorting on the view will not carry over to the main table view.

I'll try that! Thank you!

I also tried creating an interface for invoicing purposes and that worked well because if I update the interface, it updates the main table that it's attached to.

Even better!
