Cindy and Sue,
Original Publication Date probably refers to sorting books starting with the
earliest books approved because the date that the print book is published by
the publisher isn't part of the submission and validation forms, so the
publication date that you're talking about won't be included in the
database. Therefore, the system won't be able to sort books by that date.
Instead of speculating on what Jake means, though, we ought to just ask
Jake. Care to explain it to us, Jake?
Gerald

Gerald, it's probably just me. And I'm straightened
out now. smile
