* To apply sorting after a drop operation, handle the [CardDragEnd](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_CardDragEnd) event and explicitly call the [RefreshKanbanColumn](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_RefreshKanbanColumn_System_String_) method. This ensures the column updates to reflect the new card order based on the defined sorting logic.
* When using a custom data model, the default card UI is not applicable. To render the card content, you must define a custom `DataTemplate` using the [CardTemplate](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_CardTemplate) property.

[View sample in GitHub](https://github.com/SyncfusionExamples/wpf-kanban-examples/tree/master/IndexBasedSorting)

* The Index-based sorting can be achieved at the sample level after a drag-and-drop action. To implement this handle the [CardDragEnd](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_CardDragEnd) event, access the items in the target column using `e.TargetColumn.Items`, and update the numeric field used for sorting to maintain a continuous order. Finally, call [RefreshKanbanColumn](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_RefreshKanbanColumn_System_String_) method to update the UI with the new order.
* To disable sorting logic, avoid assigning a value to the [SortingMappingPath](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_SortingMappingPath) property. This ensures that card positions remain static and reflect the order of the [ItemsSource](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/wpf/Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Kanban.SfKanban.html#Syncfusion_UI_Xaml_Kanban_SfKanban_ItemsSource) collection, making it suitable for scenarios where sorting is not required or is managed externally.
