Dax - Create weekday in chronological order

Hello World, 

I have a column called PaymentDate

I then created a new column called Weekday this way. Weekday = FORMAT(Final[PaymentDate   ],"DDDD")

I created a visualization. But the weekday is not showing in chronological order. I sorted by weekdays but didn't work. How do I arrange in chronological order: Weekday starts from Sunday (US weekday). I want the visual weekday to be displayed as sun, mon, tues, wed, thurs, fri and sat.

@Anonymous Use the WEEKDAY function and set it as a Sort By column.
