Paginated Report - Sort parameter values in ascending order

Hi all,

 

Need help sorting Parameter values in descending order in the paginated report.

I have table for Reporting Period.  And, created a parameter to filter the report. In the Parameter slicer, I want to sort the Month Label values in descending order of Month Start Date.

Can anyone suggest how to acheive this?

Hi @gauthamboppana ,

I think you can first give the dataset a descending order and then import it.

Then tweak it in Query to get the answer you want.

@gauthamboppana in the query add the order by clause:

 

ORDER BY  'Calendar'[Month Start Date] DESC
