Hi again ljimenezvega84
When you input the sequence number you have used a Text data type instead of number data type.
Therefore 101, 10 and 11 will sort before 2 !
If you change the data type to whole number, then it will sort numerically.This suggests you are a novice.
I recommend you do some Power BI learning before asking anymore basic questions,because you find these kind of simple answers and lots more within a minutes of learning.
You learn better via this structured laerning path, rather than lots pf questions.

Yes that is easy to do
Create a table with name and sequence number eg 4,1,3,5,2
Then sort the name column by the squence number

Hi, thanks for your response. Yes i´ve try that, but unfortunatly when the number pass from 9 to 10, the table puts the 10 after the 1:
| 1 |
| 10 |
| 11 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
| 4 |
| 5 |
| 6 |
| 7 |
| 8 |
