Hi,
I have a measure which get the dates filtered in a 'DateDimension' table, but as you can see on the imagem below, the order of months are not in the right order.
Q: What is the right 'position' to insert the DAX 'ORDER BY' with 'ASC' parameter?
MeasureSelectedPeriods =
IF (
ISFILTERED ( 'DateDimension' ),
CONCATENATEX (
VALUES ( DateDimension[Month-Year] ), DateDimension[Month-Year], ", " ), "No period selected" )

Hi @jr3151006 ,
I created some data:
Here are the steps you can follow:
1. Create calculated column.
Year_Month =
MONTH('Table'[Date]) &"/"&YEAR('Table'[Date])
2. Create measure.
Measure =
var _min=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Date])
var _max=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Date])
var _table=
FILTER(
'Table','Table'[Date]>=_min&&'Table'[Date]<=_max)
var _table1=
SUMMARIZE(_table,[Year_Month])
return
CONCATENATEX(_table1,[Year_Month],",")
3. Result:

@jr3151006 If those aren't real dates but text, it is going to sort them as if they are text. Perhaps try adding a Sort By column with a real date?
Hi,
are you talking about to apply order directly on the table field??
