Month name on x axis does not show totals correctly (Month number does)

hello,

I had posted this earlier, but the issue is still unresolved.

 

I am trying to get commulative ytd sales, it works fine when i drop month number on x axis, however it does not when i drop month name on x axis. I have attached images for reference. i have sorted the month number column in data table, however that did not help. Please advise.

Thank you

As I see, the issue is because of sort order, the months are not in correct order however the values are showing correct,you can see dec as 7th month & june july moved to 8 & 9 .
