Graph by specific month order

[Anonymous]

Hi guys, 

I have watched a lot of videos and tried to follow online guidance on here but I still can't seem to get my graphs to order in financial year order (April first). I understand I need to have a new column with month numbers but struggling with the coding for this too...Any help is much appreciated. See below for my current data and graph.

Easy as: 

1. Enter Data - copy and paste this table

Month	Financial Order
January	10
February	11
March	12
April	1
May	2
June	3
July	4
August	5
September	6
October	7
Novermber	8
December	9

1.5 - In the Data view, click on your new Month column, Sort Column By - "Financial Order

2. In your Model View - link the two Months columns - bidirectional one to many relationship. 

3. In your chart, drag the Months from your new table as the x axis.

@Len_Barr  Got it, I accidentally had them linked to other columns in model view. 

Now I believe I have everything as you have said...but still no luck with graph. Any ideas?
