You have to have a column (an integer would be best) that the names map to. And then there's an option in PBI to set the order of the names to the integer column.

Hi,

I created a column with the correct order number, and after that, I order the column by that new column, and the order change, but isn't the correct yet, any idea why?

 

New column "Ordem":

New order:

It's not enough to just create the order column. You have to sort the column in question by it. Google: sort column by another in PBI.

I did that, but for some reason, my PBI were reading in that order: 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 2.

Always the "1" first, i don't know why,

so, i started my sequence with 10 until 23 and work!!!

 

Tks for helping! Do you have any idea how to make my PBI reading in the right order (1, 2, 3...) ?

That's because you did not change the data type of the column. It had to be INTEGER, not text.
