Sorting the logs

Thread needs solution

Can someone explain to me the sorting logic in Acronis 2014?
Now that I have a faster computer and larger backup drive, I'm running more backup routines. However, I'm finding that it's sometimes difficult to find jobs in the log. I understand how to filter, but I'm still a bit confused by the results sometimes. See attached image.

Try changing to a different sort period as the dates shown may not fit the sort of "last week"
A custom sort might work where you list the time period to be covered.
You can also get a red x if the backup was successful but the internet link was closed so an email send failed.

If find reading the log file to be confusuing all the time. I just keep trying different log file settings and always read my email notices.

A bit confused here. When choose "Last week" it shows anything in the last seven days. I'm thinking by "Last week" Acronis means this current week. Either way, when I choose "All" the backups are in an equally mixed up order.

I find toggling the "Successes", "Warnings" and "errors" to be particularly confusing as it relates to knowing how many of the selected 3 is being displayed.

I have no answer for you. Perhaps Acronis does.

I will request this post be examined but no guarantee of a response.

Yes, I just want to clarify that I usually can find the log I'm looking for, but I just find it mind-boggling that there's no obvious sort to these. If you drill down specifically, you can usually find what you're looking for, but if you just want to see your most recent activity, good luck, they're certainly not sorted chronologically.
