| I suggested this more than a year ago, but nothing ever came of it. Now that
I'm parting out sets more often, it is really becoming one of my biggest
pain points when dealing with BrickLink.
To make it easy to pick orders, my inventory is kept in the same order that I
choose to display orders received, namely "Category Name, Item Name, Color Name".
When parting out sets, however, I am limited to the "inventory" sorting options,
i.e. "Item" OR "Category", but not both. If I pick Category, all the Bricks
(for example) appear together, but in completely random order, which makes it
a pain to check them off and add them to my inventory. Conversely, if I pick
Item Name, the Bricks show up in the right order, but any part that does not
have the Category as the first part of the name shows up alphabetically instead
of grouped within its category. Animals and things in (Other) are the worst,
but lots of other parts fit the bill as well.
How hard would it be to provide the same sort options for inventories that are
already available for order, especially (for me, at least) "Category, Item Name,
Color Name"?
Thanks,

Yes PLEASE, with one addition. Category, Item Name, Item Number, Color Name.
This is how my inventory is organized and it would be REALLY helpful to be able
to sort inventory in this manner.
