Thread: Sorting by TableID

Sorting by TableID Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hello,

When I first migrated data into Saleslogix a few years ago, some of the data was imported in the chronological order from the source system, but I used the same createdate for each record when inserting into Saleslogix - DUH!. My hope is that I can use the table ID to properly identify the chronological order of creation. I understand, from one of Ryan's articles that the ID is comprised of a table identifier, site code and a 36 based number. I should be able to parse out the 36 based number and use that for sorting - right?

Thank you, ...Rob

That's correct - the first char is the record type A-ccount, C-ontact etc. with Q for custom tables. The next four chars are the SiteID (6UJ9) for example. The next two chars are the keybase (used for remote databases, starting at A0). The last 5 chars are the uniqueID (using b36) i.e.

A-6UJ9-A0-XXXXX

If you aren't using remotes then it becomes A-6UJ9-XXXXXXX i.e. the last 7 chars are using for key creation. This is what gives the range of IDs.
Mike
