This issue was originally reported in hammer bit in fact, it should be fixed on the API side. Note that this behavior occurs only when user tries to order by a field that's not defined in scoped search.
Hammer is still the easiest way of reproducing the problem, so I'm keeping the description as it was:

Description of problem:

During the usage of hammer command, some commands ( I've tested some ), returns a perfect output when running without --order parameter, Eg:

hammer> erratum list
-----|----------------|-------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ID | ERRATA ID | TYPE | TITLE
-----|----------------|-------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3114 | RHBA-2018:1339 | bugfix | tzdata enhancement update
3113 | RHSA-2018:1318 | security | Important: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update
3107 | RHSA-2018:1278 | security | Important: java-1.7.0-openjdk security update

If I try to order, by something like type, it returns an empty output table, using the example presented in documentation or some other:

hammer> erratum list --order type
---|-----------|------|------
ID | ERRATA ID | TYPE | TITLE
---|-----------|------|------
hammer> erratum list --order "type"
---|-----------|------|------
ID | ERRATA ID | TYPE | TITLE
---|-----------|------|------
hammer> erratum list --order "type desc"

8.1. Inspecting Available Errata
Example 8.1. Filtering Errata

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): SAtellite 6.3.1 RHEL 7.5

How reproducible: Always, test to run a command with --order parameter

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Satellite
2. Populate Satellite with some data
3. Use hammer with --order parameter

Actual results:

Empty output

Expected results:

Output ordered by arguments provided to --order
