Unfortunately, the org sorting relies on org-time-string-to-absolute,
which converts time strings to days only, so the default is just a day
to day comparison.
You could use something like this and then add user-defined-up or
user-defined-down where desired in org-agenda-sorting-strategy:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun my-sort-by-inactive-timestamp-incl-time (a b)
(let* ((ma (get-text-property 1 'org-marker a))
(mb (get-text-property 1 'org-marker b))
(tsa (with-current-buffer (marker-buffer ma)
(org-entry-get (marker-position ma) "TIMESTAMP_IA")))
(tsb (with-current-buffer (marker-buffer mb)
(org-entry-get (marker-position mb) "TIMESTAMP_IA")))
(seca (if tsa (org-time-string-to-seconds tsa) 0))
(secb (if tsb (org-time-string-to-seconds tsb) 0)))
(cond ((> seca secb) 1)
((> secb seca) -1)
(t nil))))
(setq org-agenda-cmp-user-defined 'my-sort-by-inactive-timestamp-incl-time)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I imagine there are ways to do this more elegantly (e.g., by iterating
over a and b), but this gets the job done for me.
Best,
