           Summary: Enhance to display order of transactions in ledgers
           Product: kmymoney
           Version: 5.0.8
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR

SUMMARY

I can alter the sort order of the transactions in the ledger.  I've used post
date and entry orders in addition to check numbers.

If I choose post date and check number, my check numbers are out of order and I
have to hunt for them.

If I choose entry and then check number, any new transactions I enter end of at
the end of the ledger instead of inline where I'd want to see them.

Is it possible to sort the transactions by posting date and override the check
sort so that for non checks they are in posting date order, but checks are in
check number order.  

I'm sure it is not a simple thing to do given the existing data organization. 
But if you sorted by check number first and 'merged' the other transactions in
by posting date 'as best you can'  I think I would find the ledger display very
usable for me.  I suspect there are a few gotchas in such am implementation but
I hope you might sort them out and make it work.

Hopefully, others would like to see this as well.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. right click on ledger heading to bring up sort order dialog.
2. figure out a way to enhance this dialog to display like I'm asking.
3.
