Unfortunately, you can not sort column when export data. The workaround is instead of apply sorting in your visual, you can do sorting in Query Editor and apply sorting for your data and brings it in your visual, then publish and update it to Service reports.Paul Zheng _ Community Support Team

I have tried reordering the columns in power query editor as per my requirement but still im not getting the order as expected it is coming in a way like calculated columns first next with some default order.
is that doable? can we set the reorder the column data for underlying dataset as per specific form?
Example: by default:
period_qq,country,customer,values1,value2,value3 value4
Expected result:
once i export the underlying data from chart
Value1,country,customer,period_qq,value3,value4,value2
Please suggest.

Anonymous - As suggested.I have tried at power query level by reordering the columns. but once i have published the report into power bi services. still the order is coming by default.
