Hello!
I am seeking help with one of the Power BI matrixes I have been working on. Basically, it is made up of values that are all calculated columns (six of them) which have different fields that make them up. They are then grouped by business and shown as rows within the table. The columns of this table are made up of a categorical field that splits the values into "final" or "intial".
I have had two issues with this:
1. I can't switch the order of the column headers to "Initial", "Final" because they are automatically sorted by alphabetical order and there seems no easy way to do so
2. I want to add in a third column that shows the delta value between the final and initial values. Ideally, I could do this without changing up the matrix format right now.
Open to any suggestions!
Thank you! The sorting worked for my columns. However, when it comes to repurposing my total, I'm a little confused with how to go about that. Since each of the values are calculated differently, the delta is going to be calcualted differently between the final and initial group and I am not sure how to add a collection of fields to replace my total column. Would appreciate any other guidance you have on this!

1. Read about how to sort one column by another column. Use a dimension table, indicate the sort order, and then use measures for the values.
2. You can repurpose the "Total" column for that. Again, needs a measure.
