Rearrange Hierarchy?

I have created a hierarchy like: MegaProduct / SuperProduct / ProductLine / SKU. I'd like to change the order to Super / Mega / Line / SKU. But this doesn't seem to be possible? I have tried dragging, right-clicking, ellipsis menu, google, forum search, and ideas search. It seems like this would be standard functionality - am I just doing something wrong?

Desktop Version: 2.93.981.0 64-bit (May 2021)

  • Hi, RVand 

     

    In the latest version, the created hierarchy doesn't support drag to change the order. You can choose to recreate the hierarchy and add fields to the hierarchy regularly.

  • This can be achieved by viewing the hierarchy via the 'Model' view in PBI Desktop

     

     

    Once in that view click the specific hierarchy field within the appropriate table.  For example :

     

     Then, in the Properies blade, you can add and drag items to the hierarchy and (re)order them as needed.

     

     

     

    Don't forget to click 'Apply Level Changes' once done. ğŸ˜‰

    That's unfortunate, but at least it confirms I wasn't doing it wrong. Thanks!
