Custom Sorting

Hello all,

 

Thank you to all who respond.

 

I have a table using a column named 'Index' which I am sorting on to show the ageGroups fields in order. ageGroup is a text field.

This is working fine, however when I convert this to any type of Bar Chart I loose the sorting. I don't see any way to sort by the axis.

I will need to see the empty ageGroups as seen above. Any way to have the ageGroups below sorting as seen in the table?

 

Thank you!

BLD

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please refer to my detailed solution here :
Solved: Re: Manual sort - Microsoft Power BI Community


You basically need to sort the ageGroups column by the index column and that should fix your issue.

Kind regards,

Hi Rohit,

 

Yes that is my dilema, where and how do I sort that in the chart. I only see sort Axis which will not sort correctly.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Could you confirm that you have performed Step-2 in the solution link I posted earlier? Looking at your screenshot it is evident that ageGroups is not being sorted by the index column. 

Kind regards,

Rohit
