How to sort week end date in the date table?

Hi

 

I have below date table

 

bourne2000_0-1674267566648.png

 

 

I created Week End date using this dax measure

Week End Date = 'Date'[Date] - WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2) + 7

 

I need to sort the week end date, as I build the bar chart using week end date as an axis but it's not sorted out

Can anyone advise the following?

 

1) How to sort the week end date?

2) Hot to format week end date into "MM/dd/YYYY"

Hi @bourne2000 

Click the End Date column, then change it date type to short date

@FreemanZ  Thanks. I used the measure and it changed into mm/dd/yyyy. However, it is not sorting. I used sort by but it's not showing correct sort. I have data from 2022 to 2023. It showing mixed axis
