I'm happy to see you here in the Community, @brentriggs.
QuickBooks Online offers multiple ways to filter and sort your sales transaction, including ascending and descending order. However, being able to retain the sales page in ascending order is currently unavailable. Descending order is the default set up of the sales list in the system.
I can see the importance of having the information to be sorted depending on your desired date for your company. I'll surely submit this preference to our developers so they can assess the suggestion and put it under consideration.
I also encourage you to visit our QuickBooks Online Blog site to be updated with our latest news and product enhancements.
You can also check out these links about filtering your transaction and reports in QBO for reference:
As always, I'm only a post away if you need anything else. Cheering you to continued success in all of your endeavors.
