Matrix Sort Order by Month and Year Problem
- Anonymous8 years ago
Mond - Your suggestion got me in the ball park for the next step. I'm sure you would have done something similar but I found an answer here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/how-to-sort-Date-MonthYear-column/td-p/102700
I did what Tri Nguyen suggested by adding another numerical column which I could sort my MonthYr column by. It is multi to multi relation but not text. Worked perfectly. Thank you both!
Anonymous,
No problem. You can create another column in your date table using this format "YYYY/DD" (YearMonthnumber) then sort your Month by YearMonthNumber
Still no go. I'm thinking I have a problem to fix in the one to many relationship. I can't sort any column with multiple values by a column that has unique values without getting the same error for different columns.

The data type is "Text" on Month column.
Please change it to Date format and it should work.

Mond - Changing data type only caused errors.
