Sorting a dropbown bound to a datasource

Hi,

Has anyone tried with success sorting a dropbown box that is mapped using the bound functionality?

I am using DS 1.6, and trying to map the fiscal year (0FISCYEAR) through a bex query using the bound functionality, but the script to sort the values descending does not seem to work - DROPDOWN_1.sort(false);

I also attempted to do the sorting in the initial view, but it remained the same.

I tried with 0CALYEAR, same behaviour.

Using manual values, it works. So I'm guessing this is some kind of limitation when using the bound functionality, but I was wondering if someone could confirm this.

Thank you for your help.

Br,

João

UPDATE: It is possible to sort if you set the sort within the BEx query - this makes sense, but still shouldn't it be possible to override this sorting either in the initial view or through script?
