If you want dynamic, you can format your date in new column (as I suggested previous) or new table (as lc_finance suggested). Sorting by custom format date "yyyy.MM.00" sort first in year, next month. All is dynamic and new dates goes to the right place between values.

Hi harib ,
you can do the following:
1) create a new table by clicking on Home -> Enter Data
2) enter the following table:
3) create a relationship between the new table and your existing table
4) Order the new date column based on the new order column: click on the new Date column; then click on Modeling -> Sort by Column -> Order
5) in your visualization, replace the 'Date' column from your existing table with the 'Date' column from the new table

In this senario we are giving static date values.Tomorrow if date added in DB level we will get issue here. Please let me know any other option in this case.
