Change column order from previously created columns in dax after edit its data source

Hi,

 

I got data and created customized columns(yellow) in dax but recently I changed the whole initial data source path. 

In the result, new initial data is located after customized columns, so can't I change the order?

Hi @jeongkim 

Unfortunately, there is no way to rearrange columns in the Table View within the Power BI Desktop interface. You can adjust the column order in Power Query, but the order will only apply within Power Query. Once you load the data, it will revert to the current order.

However, in the Fields pane on the right side, where the tables and columns are listed, the columns will always be sorted alphabetically.
