Normally you would be using measures for aggregations. For example,
Sales = SUM(Table[Sales])You can then add the measures to the visual. The order is established by the order in the Values bucket.
But it would really help if you could post a depiction (screenshot, mockup in Excel...) of what you are hoping to achieve

So i would want
Sales
Revenue
