## 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;
|
|
```
