It would be much more sensible to have the purchase invoice view display the due date (entered or calculated) as a sort enabled column for any unpaid items. The current formatting of the Status column does not consistently result in a properly ordered list.
Many people like the present look. Under ‘Reports,’ you may get more information on Suppliers. The Aged Payable report, for example, provides an aging report at the invoice level.

@Geezer, @Abeiku is right. You could probably think of a dozen different ways to display and sort the tab listing by default. None would please everyone. The developer chose one he believes emphasizes actions most likely to require attention or be productive in the near term.
If the numeric portion of the status message were formatted as a 2 or 3 digit zero filled value, that would be true, as it is, the sorting is less than stellar.
