Hi,
In the Calendar table, create a calculated column formula to extract the Day of week
DoW = format(calendar[date],"dddd")
In MS Excel, create a 2 column by 7 row table with day names in column 1 and order of those day names in column 2. Name this table as doworder.
| Day name | Day order |
| Monday | 1 |
| Tuesday | 2 |
| Wednesday | 3 |
| Thursday | 4 |
| Friday | 5 |
| Saturday | 6 |
| Sunday | 7 |
In the Calendar Table, write this calculated column formula to brin over the Order column from another table
Dow order = related(doworder[order])
Click on any cell in the Dow column of the Calendar table and under Sort by column, select Dow order. to your visual, drag Dow from the Calendar Table.
