    Hisameergupta60，

     

    You can create a column chart and a slicer with month name field ，then sort the month name with the fiscal year number field.

     

    For more information about sorting Data by Fiscal Year in Power BI，you can refer to this ：

    Hope it helps.

     

    Best Regards,

    Caitlyn Yan

Your Date column is not  a Date type. It's a text type.
