Hello,
I am trying to sort the product column in my matrix by my custom sort. I designated the columns by numbers to allow for sorting but for some reason it will not adjust in my visual. I also designatted my sort by column to be order. Please advise.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
Have you specify the [Order] field as the "Sort by" column for [Product]?
If you have done above setting while it still doesn't work, please click the three dots on Matrix, and choose sort by [Product] for a test.
Best regards,
Yuliana Gu

The Matrix visual lacks custom sorting functionality and more. There are lots of ideas on the community site. Below are the front runners. Please vote these up!
