Hi @Anonymous ,
Current power bi not support apply multiple sorting orders on matrix, you can refer to following link to create a custom sort order table to apply multiple column sorting:
Custom Order=
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
Table,
ISONORAFTER (
[Column1], Table[Column1], DESC,
[Column2], Table[Column2], DESC,
[Column3],Table[Column3], ASC
)
)
)

@Anonymous thank you....
I'm quite surprised that powerBI would not support such a basic feature...
