    How do you sort item numbers targeting only specific numbers?

    How can you sort item numbers, targeting only the numbers in the mock up file?
    Example:

    item number: GW14SO0000003
    item company: GW
    item location: 14SO
    item counter: 0000003

    How can I only sort the item by the last 7 digits "0000003"

    Hi, perhaps you can split the text using [Text to Columns] function and sort it?

    Re: How do you sort item numbers targeting only specific numbers?

    Actually you can sort by the last character by using formula in B3:

    --=RIGHT(A,1)

    then apply filter for A2 and B2 and sort in ascending or descending order.

    Can I just add a sort button to the item number heading? Then a drop down menu appears - Arrange by number -
