    Meerakhanna I can't reproduce this issue with the version of desktop I've got (I have seen this type of issues earlier). Can you download and update desktop to latest version and see it it is still there. Also under Data view right click column -> Sort and see if that makes any difference.

    I guess you may put Quarter upon Year level in your hierarchy so that your data group on Quarter first then Year. It supposes to sort by year if you build your hierarchy properly.

      Hi,

      I am using the latest version only which i downloaded last week.

       

      Also, using the heirarchy is too Year to Qtr to Date ...Please see to the below. Still I am not able to see the Quarters to be sorted properly.

        Was there ever a solution provided to this? I am experiencing similar issue with Quarter attribute in time dimension. Cannot order on YearMo or unique period_id because there are more than one values for month granularity (YearMo and period_id) for a given Quarter value.
