Hi, HenryJS 

According to your description, first, you want to sort Week Ending by Week number but failed because of different years, I think you can create a calculated column to connect year with week number to distinguish with other years. Like this:

Year-Weeknum = YEAR([Date])&"-"&WEEKNUM([Date],2)

Then you want to make the Matrix sorted by the value of the column(end of the week), but according to my test and research, I guess that Power BI matrix still don’t have this feature, you can click here to vote for this idea: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=1513f45d-a47a-4326-adbe-8bb0023da6c8
