I am wondering if there is an easy way of sequencing events?
Currently, it seems one has to do it using event dates. This means every time, I need to go back and forth between events then I have to load all the events and sort them by date and see what comes before and after my current event. I don’t think this is quite efficient. Why don’t we have eventSequence number?
Abyot and I discussed a bit, short-term approach will be to
change executiondate from date to timestamp
use the existing index on that column to do sorting in a fast way
hide the sorting operation between an interface
This way the timestamp (executiondate) sort of becomes the sequence number.
