Manually Sort Columns?

Is there a way to manually sort columns when first day of week starts on a Sat for our organization?

 

I'm getting the following result but not sure how to achieve the days starting on Sat and in order from there?

Hi  @f4gfm0 ,

I created some data:

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create calculated column.

WEEK = FORMAT('Table'[Date],"ddd")

2. Create a table using Enter data.

3. Connect the relationship between the two tables.

4. [Week] – Column tools– Sort by column  – [Index].

Create a sort column in your table as follows with the paramter 16 and sort your Weekday Column using this sort column

Weekday Sort = WEEKDAY('Dates'[Date],16)
