Point cloud and sorting

I created a Point Cloud based on a table where each line as a unique identifier.

The X Values of the Point Cloud is a car registration date.

The Y Values is a selling price.

The Legend is the unique identifier.

 

I would like to sort the graph by ascending car registration date, but it is always sorted by ascending Legend (unique identifier).

How can I correct it ?

Thank you for your support

Thank you  - Here I provide the screenshot:

As you can see, instead of sorting by the X Axis (month) he starts to sort by Legend (vehicule reference). How can I avoid it?

Hi @Anonymous 

 

From the screenshot it looks like your date column data type is text, so it can't be sorted by month, you can try to change the date column to the Date Data type.
