I see that cook automatically adds the id field in the table.

When in collection layout I cannot sort the items by the id.

Is there an option available.

The table is ordered by default on it's default field.

You can do this putting an ID column in the grid, and sort on it.
To instance the ID key of the table, just drag-drop the root of the fields tree.

OR

In your view, simply add :
$model->addOrder("a.id");

OR

In the model, change the default ordering key ('pre_order', or something like this, if I remember)




That's all.
Coding is now a piece of cake

Really great Joomla tool Cook is a great piece of kit for creating Joomla components. It uses a drag-n-drop interface to build tables and fully featured pages. You can test your component in a sandbox before downloading it packaged up ready to install. The developer is responsive on the support forum.
