    Hi Anonymous 

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum regarding your query.


    To sort a slicer that uses a column containing both numbers and text , please follow the steps below:


    1. Create a new column in Power BI using the following DAX:

       Sort_Order =

       VAR TryNum = IFERROR(VALUE('MetricTable'[Metric_Group]), BLANK())

       RETURN

        IF(

            NOT ISBLANK(TryNum),

            TryNum,

            1000 + UNICODE(UPPER('MetricTable'[Metric_Group]))

        )

     2. In Data view, select the Metric_Group column and apply Sort by Column choose the Sort_Order column then use the Metric_Group column in slicer visual.

    I have also attached a snapshot and PBIX file for your reference  please review it.
