Hi @Rnaval,

You would need an additional column with sort order or a table similar to the one below to do that

Then you need to sort your severity column by that order column as described in this article:

As the last step please make sure to sort the visual by the dimension and not the measure:

Hi, @Rnaval 

I am glad to help you.

First click on Transform data, in the Power Query Editor you can add a new column to customize the sort order:

Close & Apply.

Then select the Serverity field in the Table view and click Sort by column, select the column you just added:

I have attached the pbix file for this simple example below, hope it helps.

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
