Sort Issue
Hi,
I am trying to sort a filter that has text. I want to sort it ascending wise.
I have assigned a new column number and gave each value a number. But I still can't sort it
the code:
Number = SWITCH (
TRUE (),
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "under $25k", 1,
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "$25Kto$50K", 2,
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "50Kto$100K", 3,
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "$100Kto500K", 4,
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "$500Kto1Million", 5,
'Won_count'[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] = "$1 Million and Over", 6,
10
)
Hi Anonymous ,
We suggest you to create a new Won_count table with unique values. And then create a one-to-many relationship with the original table.
You can refer the following steps.
1. Create a new table.
Table = DISTINCT(Won_count)2. Then create the relationship.
3. Create a slicer using Table[WonOppsSoftAmountLast1Yr_filter] and sort by number.
If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?

Hi Anonymous ,
In the Data View.
Select the Column Software Amount Last Type, click on Sort By Column and Sort it by Number

the column software amt last is already sort by itself. If I try to change the sorting from Sort by Column, I get below error:
