Sort Column by another Column

I have a dataset like below:|

Project Category Rank
Proj1A1
Proj1B2
Proj1C3
Proj2C1
Proj2A2
Proj2B3

 

I will need to put two Slicers:

Slicer 1: Project

Slicer 2 Category 


I Will need to Sort the Category column by Rank column so the values in Category Slicer appear in correct order.

If Proj1 is selected the Category slicer order should be A , B, C.

If Proj2 is selected the Category slicer order should be C, A, B.

If I try to sort the Category by Rank column, I get an error since we have multiple Rank values for the same Category.

Hi @magji ,

The way I can think of is to split the table by project, create two slicers, and use the bookmark + button to control the visibility of the two slicers.

Hi @Jihwan_Kim.
Also the table in the left should be a Slicer.
