Hi,
I have a column month which is sorted by another column month no.
The sorting working for other visuals but in metrix visual the sort is not working
is there any option to fix this sorting
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Anonymous
Thanks for your reply.
If the type is Whole number, it should work fine. Could you share a sample file for us to check? Thanks

@Anonymous , check do you have two values for same month in sort column, I doubt that
to test plot both to them unsummarized in a table visual and sort on month and check
This is how you column and sort column should look like
Month Year = FORMAT([Date],"mmmm")
Month Year sort = month([DAte])
