Change order of custom columns

Is there any way to change the order of added columns when they are added to the table after Power Query? I build a ton of custom columns as sometimes it's easier than building in PQ, but I want some of it to be moved closer to a place that makes sense vs at the very end of what could be 100 columns. Why can't you reorder the columns?

 

The example below was an easy fix - I had only added two columns (Cancelled Date and Time before Cancellation), but I went back in and added Subscription Product in PQ so it was at the END of my table and my added columns were now in the middle. I deleted and rewrote them so they showed up at the end but that isn't always possible in a larger data set.

 

Someone please tell me there is a way to do this??

@ciken I've never found a way to do that.
