Hi @RMRaptor,

You can create a new table with corresponding date field values in text format and custom column with index based on date values to use on 'sort by column' property. (use if statement to check if current value equal to TBD and return a larger number to keep its order to bottom)

Custom Sorting in Power BI 

SortTable =
ADDCOLUMNS (
    VALUES ( 'Sample'[Date] ),
    "Index",
        IF (
            [Date] = "TBD",
            COUNTROWS ( 'Sample' ),
            COUNTROWS (
                FILTER (
                    'Sample',
                    [Date] <> "TBD"
                        && DATEVALUE ( [Date] ) <= DATEVALUE ( EARLIER ( 'Sample'[Date] ) )
                )
            )
        )
)
