How to Prevent Power BI from resequencing columns in Table visual

Hey Everyone, Need some help in understanding how can i fix power BI re-ordering columns in Table visual.

I have built a table with selected field parameters and the field parameters are sorted based on the order number and also grouped by a criteria (Location, Product etc).

 

Now, i have a table visual in the report which shows these field parameters values, and a slicer to select this field parameters to filter the data. I want the columns in table visual to display based on the order of my selection in the slicer. While it is working for few selection of columns however it is not working for all, meaning when i select one new field parameter from slicer then few existing columns in the table are getting rearranged. I want to control the order of fields and ensure they appear in the same sequence of slicer selection.

For ex: I am selecting few parameters in the slicer then the table visual is showing the columns in the right order of selection but for some parameters selection, existing columns in the table visual are getting re arranged. 

Has anyone encountered this issue before? How can I prevent Power BI from reordering my fields so that I can build the desired view?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
