Date sort from 18:00 to 17:00

Hi All,

 

Is there a way to sort my date in 24h day from 18:00 start to 17:00 end and not from 00:00 to 23:00

So in other words like this...

I am trying to structure my X axis by hour but in a specific order. So by default Power BI would arrange my hours from 0 - 23

or it would kind of just mix them up as below.

Hi @Freeseman ,

 

Please try:

First, create a new column to help sort:

Here is the M code:

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Tc/JDcAwCATAXnj7YRYfoRYr/bcRsY4Ev7E4Fp8jXZq4yduOaHCRCHbSgiBHcJMzOMiVYzt7n+AkvUREnPa7WRno1yi23KijDsxSWLWw64PReu2lgJ5HQ7MJyH/B/jveDw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Time = _t, Value = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Time", Int64.Type}, {"Value", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each if [Time]>=18 then [Time]-18 else [Time]+6),
    #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"Custom", Int64.Type}})
in
    #"Changed Type1"

Then use sort by column:

Choose sort by time in the visual:

Final output:
