Sort by Column Desc in Power BI

Hello,    I have this matrix table which the columns are dynamic months.     As you can see, the data is in blank because it starts sorting by "asc" order, how can i change that to "desc"?...

Thanks for your response, Hennadii , but in this case, it will order by the total column, instead of ordering desc by month column...

 

I want to see like this: 2020-06, 2020-05, 2020-04, etc...

jvbs , there is Sort By in the bottom of that menu. Do you have there the Month column? If not, you can add a Month column in the tooltip section of the Matrix table, so after that it should be present under Sort By.

        Hennadii it didnt work 😞

         

        Let me try to explain ya in other way:

         

        The video you’ve sent show how to sort the rows of a simple table object by using a hidden field.

        What i’m trying to do is sort a column from a matrix visual object by using the column “Year-month (YYYY-MM)”
