Sorting by Date (M/D/YYYY)

I am unable to sort date by year in slicer. The problem is when i am clicking on dropdown there date is showing month wise for both years 2017 and 2018 together. so i want the year 2017 should come first before year 2018.. Hope you understand my query 

 

 

Thank in advance

    Check your data type, it's probably text rather than date
