Sort Matrix by Year (descending)
- 6 years ago
Hi, robincard
Based on your description, you can create a calculated column as follows.
Rank = RANKX('Table','Table'[Year],,DESC,Dense)
You may go to ‘Modeling’ ribbon, click ‘Sort by Column’, select ‘Rank’ column.
Result:
As a workaround, you can also click ‘Edit Query’, go to Query Editor, choose ‘Add column’ ribbon, select ‘Conditional Column’.
You may configure as follows, then go to ‘File’ ribbon, click ‘Close and Apply’.
Then you can make ‘Year’ column selected, go to ‘Modeling’ ribbon, click ‘Sort by Column’, select ‘Custom’ column. Here is the result.
If I misunderstand your thought, please show me your sample data and expected output. Do mask sensitive data before uploading. I am glad to solve the problem for you.
Best Regards,
Allan

Right after I posted my comment, I found the solution!!! It worked for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVex9Gv-Hok
The trick is to make sure you have selected "year" (1:30) in the Report view before you go back to the Data view to sort. I did not lose hierarchy.
LOL. It was so simple
