I have to sort a matrix by different fields, and some of them are not in the visual object itself. Is it possible?
Thanks

Hi @rgsalido ,
There is no direct way to sort multi columns in matrix. As a workaround, you may refer the following link.

Step 1: In your Matrix, add a field to the row hierarchy (which you will later remove).
Step 2: Change the Matrix to a Table visual.
Step 3: Sort all the columns you wish to sort, and in the order you wish them to be sorted.
Step 4: Delete the field you previously added in Step 1 from the table.
Step 5: Change the Table back to a Matrix visual.
Step 6: Ensure the right fields are back in the Row hierarchy.
This will maintain your multiple sorted fields within your matrix, even when you expand your row hierarchies.
