<_Created by Microsoft, Described by waldo_\>
## Description
Variables declarations should be ordered by type. In general, object and complex variable types are listed first followed by simple variables. The order should be **the same as the object list in the object designer for AL objects**. Afterwards come the complex variables like RecordRef, .NET, FieldRef etc. At the end come all the simple data types in no particular order.
## Bad code
```al
StartingDateFilter : Text;
Vendor : Record Vendor;
```
## Good code
```al
Vendor : Record Vendor;
StartingDateFilter : Text;
```
