Column sorting

Thiagops — Mon, 20 Feb 2023 13:29:04 GMT

Good morning colleagues,

I have a column chart and I applied a data segmentation (Relative date - Last 12 months (calendar)).
I am not able to sort in ascending order by month/year; the correct thing would be to pull February/2022 first and January/2023 to play at the end. Can anyone help me?

Columns in my calendar table

In this case, the January column should be at the end

Hi Thiagops ,

I can not reproduce the issue. Could you pleae provide more details? Why the January column should be at the end?

Good afternoon,

The month of January needs to be at the end because I'm using a data segmentation (Relative date) and I filtered from 02/01/2022 to 01/31/2023. I would need the chart to follow this order (From February/2022 to January/2023)

Hi Thiagops ,

If this is the case, you need to select the year and month in the date hierarchy. Because it is not possible to identify in the chart whether this January is for 2022 or 2023, which can easily cause misunderstandings.
