Hi,
Currently my date hierarchy is showing months by their name. e.g. April is showing as "April". Please can you tell me how to make the month show by the month's number? e.g. for April to show as "4"?
Thanks for your help,
CM
hi @CloudMonkey ,
here, i am sharing my screenshots, plz check it.
This is my original Data
this is how to generated MontName and MonthNumber calculated column by using my Date column
After conversion my Table have All date's info
For ex, I am using bar chart for displaying purpose my data. One thing observe here months are showing April is starting month. So next we want Jan to Dec
By using MonthNumber Column we are soring monthName Column (See top of bar we have one option)
Finally I Changed monthName column to MonthNumber column
hi, @CloudMonkey
You could create a custom date hierarchy then use it in the visual.
Best Regards,

Hi @CloudMonkey ,
Probably you can create a seperate mapping table like,
Month_Number Month_name
1 January
2 February
3 March and so on
You can now connect this table to your fact table on Month_name column and then can pull the month number from this newly created table.
Thanks,
Anish
