Clustered Column Chart - I can't sort

Hi there,

this drives me crazy. I can't sort my clustered column chart by years. It goes from highest to lowest and I don't know why. 

 

Here is my chart:

 and this is how my fields are set up

From all posts, videos etc it seems there should be the option to sort by the Fiscal Year and then descending but somehow I can't.

Even if I delete the the legend or the X-axis, I cannot sort it.

 

Any ideas?

@inservo , there is one more option, the Sort axis, Missing in your case.

 

Make sure, no Windows update is pending. Reinstall the latest version of Power bi again

I don't have the option of the sort axis.

 

And with all due respect, NO, I will definitely not follow any "reinstall" advice. This might be working for stuff like Minecraft and the likes, but we are speaking about a professional BI solution. Uninstalling and reinstalling is not an option for professionals.
