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?
Appreciate the help !

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
