    Hi@Tamir

    For value (blank) in this column may have many different corresponding values in other columns, So it can’t be sorted by another column.  

    And filter the whole report/page by this column is just to hide the "Blank" in the visual you don’t want to see, so you can just add a visual level filter on this visual.

Hi v-lili6-msft

 

Q3 and Q1 - Great. Did it.

 

Q2 - I don't understand. As in your screenshot, I would like to sort column2 ("mmm-yy") by the Index column (in my dimCalendar it would be column MonthYearNumber). 

 

Thank you,

 

Regards,

Tamir

Hi@Tamir 

After my test by adding Column Months Name YTD and Column Year Month Number and sort Months Name YTD by Year Month Number like you,

I can not reproduce the error.

So could you please share your pbix or the data sample and formula of your Column Months Name YTD and Column Year Month Number.

You can upload it to OneDrive or Dropbox and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Best Regards,

Lin
