Hi! I’d like to use the Batch Update extension to sort fields for certain things, but so far it seems I can only sort by the main field.

In my case, the field I would like to sort links to a table featuring members. I have the name of each member as the main field. However, I want to be able to sort it by the date each member joined – which I have filled out in a separate column. This way, the members are automatically sorted by seniority instead of me having to do that manually every time.

Is this possible with this app, or do I have to write my own script (or edit someone else’s!) to accomplish this? I can do it manually if I have to, but I’m talking thousands of records, and sometimes there are well over 30 members. Since the members change over time and aren’t all in the same records, I can’t just copy and paste things, either.

Cheers!
