Custom sorting of breakdown and category table values in the waterfall chart

Hi All

 

I have created a waterfall chart with a category and a breakdown table.  I want to sort both Category (LY and CY) and Breakdown values on X-axis.

 

Tried approaches:

 

1. Created a sorting column but that did not work

2. Created a meta-table and joined category and breakdown table with this meta-table by one-one mapping but that was changing my graph values

 

Is there any way to do that?

 

Regards,

Prateek

Although this is an old post, I am following it because I have the same issue: I would like to sort alphabetically the breakdown categories that are masked in the graph below:
