I have noticed that when I click on Status in order to display all invoices based on due time, the Invoices are listed based on the text contained in the box rather than the actual (over)due time. So for example **Due in 14 days** comes before **Due in 2 days**.

Is there maybe a way around this?

If you leave them unsorted they should appear in chronological order.

Not really. Unsorted I think they are listed automatically by invoice number

It can be confusing. For a thorough explanation of sort order, see [Tab listing sort order](https://forum.manager.io/t/tab-listing-sort-order/33850).
