Hi Team,
Is there any way to sort the filter by year in Power BI desktop?
Can I sort this by year so 2018 and then 2019 Months in order?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @adityavighne ,
You can, yes. You will need a column on your table that calculates a number to use for sorting the column. Something like this:
YearMonthSort = YEAR([Date])*100 + MONTH([Date])
Then you select your Year Month column in the table view and go to Modeling > Sort by Column and pick YearMonthSort
