    You are right that it rearranges the order. I think you can acheive this through a little trick if feasible for you.

     

    Just rename the columns as A.FiscalYear , B.Quarter & C.Month

     

    Hope this would resolve your issue. :smileywink:

     

    Regards

    hi, Anonymous

    the fields in FIELDS and FILTERS are set to sort alphabetically by default. and it can be changed for now.

    You could rename the fields by adding a prefix to sort them as a workaround for now.

    for example:

    3FiscalMOnthNumber
    2FiscalQuarter
    1FiscalYear

     

    For your requirement, you could post your new idea in Power BI ideas and make this feature coming sooner .

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Lin

Remove all the filters in the filter pane and re-add them in the order you want ;)
