Controlling the column order in a Matrix table
In a Matrix Table, how do I get the columns to sort so that 2018 is on the left side of 2017. I have played around with column indexing with no luck. I think I was able to do it years ago but I have forgotten.
Hi Anonymous
As tested, It doesn't support to sort column header on descending order, it is sorted on ascending order by default.
As a workaround, i go to Edit queries, create a conditional column
Apply&&close
Select "Year", then select "sort by column"->custom

This looks like a great solution to get the contents of a row in order like for a P&L waterfall. My issue is the order of the columns going across...it defaults to 2017 | 2018 and I need it to be 2018 | 2017.
