How to sort (descending) column values in Power BI matrix?

I do have the followingn matrix:

Power_BI_Adapt_0-1670849844186.png

using the following Rows ('Rijen'), Column ('Kolommen') and Values ('Waarden')

Power_BI_Adapt_1-1670849898500.png

 

I am only able to sort on rows and values, but not on columns. 

 

Question: how could I sort on columns (in this example decending from 2022-11 to 2022-9; representing November 2022 till September 2022).

 

Any suggestion?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I think you should create a index column to sort the column in matrix.

That is, each row needs a separate identifier.

 

Hope this helps you.
