Hi,
I have a Matrix Chart with the following columns:
UserID | January 2017 | February 2017 | March 2017 | etc... | Total
The values in the month columns are the amount spent by user that month.
I would like the columns to be in the following order:
UserID | Total | March 2017 | February 2017 | January 2017 | etc..
I can't find the way to order the dates in reverse, with most recent month first.
Thank you in advance!
PS just had an idea of adding a column and indexing the dates in the order I want them - would that be considered a good practice?
As for the Total column, you may vote up the idea below.
