How to have a x axis aligned with numbers

Capture_PowerBI.PNG

I have added a new column Lead Time created using DATEDIFF in the Data view using modelling tab. When I tried to create a column chart with lead time on x axis and count of lead time on y axis it's plotting the columns randomly. I tried changing the axis type to categorical and also checked that the data type is also right as whole number. I want the x axis to be in ascending order like 0,4,5,6,...17,18. 

 

Can you help where am I going wrong? 

And also the created column in data view is not showing up in the power query editor. I created it in data view becuase the custom column in power query editor is not recognizing DATEDIFF().

 

Appreciate your help!!

Have you tried to sort the visual by the column on X-axis..?

Yes I tried that but nothing changes on the chart. I think it's already sorted out by the column but in descingding order. It's not getting sorted in ascending order.
