The customer list is in alphabetical order by first name, but I need it in order by last name. I can't seem to find a way to put it order by last name. I feel like I'm missing something obvious 😉

You can't on the Dashboard. You can do one of two things.
1 - Type in the last name and it will filter the list to anyone with that name.
2 - Export the database and then you can sort the spreadsheet.

Who lists customer by first name??
How does that make sense? What business would?
I am NOT a happy or satisfied customer.

It's my mission to have them sort by last name. I agree it makes absolutely no sense!

Every system we use has clients sorted by last name. Using first names to sort clients is a pain. PLEASE make it an option to search by last name. Why is there a separate area for last name if you can't sort it that way? It makes absolutely no sense and is useless.

We are new to Square. The customer list we have is by first name and then last name. How do you have the customer list show last name then first name to make it easy to find a customer?

Add me to the list of customers wanting this feature. Please allow us to sort customers by last name! This is the normal way to sort customers. First name is nice for a few customers, but not for very many. This seems like such an easy feature to code up.

If I had known that we could not sort by last name, I would not have used this system. What company sorts by first name??? Have you fixed this yet... square?
It is ludicrous. The only way we can achieve a last name sort is to put the last name in the "first name" block and the first name in the "last name" block.

Hey @danalaake thanks for posting and welcome to the Seller Community. You can filter and search your orders by last name, first name, or full name. If you know the specific order you are looking for, you can type the customer's name into the search bar to pull it up.
If you would like to just organize your orders by last name you can click the header of the column and it will organize the orders by that column.
There is also a drop down by the search bar that will allow you to search by specific details as well.
I have attached this help article that will show you in more detail where the drop down is on your orders screen as well as provide some more assistance on how to filter your order.
I hope this helps, but please let me know if you have any other questions.

@AshleyK the issue is not searching orders. The issue is having the customer list itself in order by last name. Not the same thing. Has this functionality been added yet? I see years of people asking.

Hey @SpokaneRotary21,
Welcome back to the Community!
The ability to filter your customer directory by last name is not available currently – but I can absolutely see how it would benefit your business. Please feel free to share your suggestion in Ideate Room here: squ.re/ideate.
Let me know if I can assist you with anything else.

It's crazy that the customer list stores first and last names separately (as it should) but we can't have the option to show the list with last name first, or at least sorted by last name. I can see that this feature has been requested for over four years - is there anyone listening???
