Hi @omareisa ,

Something like this

SortByColumns( AddColumns( Filter( 'Approvals test forms', StartsWith( Title, TextSearchBox1.Text ) ), "SortOrder", Switch( Status, "New", 1, "Pending", 2, "Approved", 3, "Rejected", 4 ) ), "SortOrder" )

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

That did not work, I believe there is a bigger problem in my code which I can not seem to find,
Switch(
Status,
"New,
1,
"Pending",
2,
"Approved",
3,
"Rejected",
4
)
),
"SortOrder"
)
all of these are errors

Hi @omareisa ,

If Status is a Choice column, you should need

SortByColumns( AddColumns( Filter( 'Approvals test forms', StartsWith( Title, TextSearchBox1.Text ) ), "SortOrder", Switch( Status.Value, "New", 1, "Pending", 2, "Approved", 3, "Rejected", 4 ) ), "SortOrder" )
