Change dates in Bar Graph

Within my organization, we have pay periods that start at 20, go to 26 and then start at 1 to 19 to end the year.  When creating a bar graph it normally will start at 1 and then go to 26.  I am trying to find out how to have it start at pp 20 then go to 26 and then 1 through 19.  Any ideas on how to change this to reflect in graphs?

 

Here is an example of what I see:

try this - add another column with the right order

 

20 =1

21 =2

22 =3

...

26 = 5

1 = 6

2 = 7

 

etc.

 

Then use the "Sort a column by another column" feature.
