Change Sort Order on Axis

I would like to custom sort axis and have tried creating a new table with correct values

 

I have used Merge Query to join the above table with the Activites Data for one to many relationship.

I read other posts suggesting to create an Index Table in Power Query but when I do that it creates a unique number for all 350 rows rather than distinct values for the 5 shown above.

  • A Simple workAround i can suggest is to have the index values assigned to the rows in the main table which has the data and then link the index column of both the tables . now create the chart visual and add the index column to the tooltips field and disable tooltips in the visualisation properties .


    now click the menu(3 dots) on the chart visual and sort by dropdown select the index and order by ascending this should give you what you are expecting
