Adjust order of Date slicer drop down

Hi all,

 

I have a date slicer in which users can select an asofdate (which is the so to say "shapshot" date). 

However, I don't like the fact that people have to scroll down to get to the most recent snapshot dates. Every day, another date is added, so in a year they will have to scroll down a lot to see the latest dates. Is there a way to adjust the order of the dates in the slicer?

Kind regards

2. sort axis

3. by date descending

Hi, @daircom 

Thanks for adudani's reply. You can refer to his method. Or try the following way.

1. Add a index column, choose the date column and choose the index in Sort by column
