Sort by column not working
Hi, I created a sort column for my dataset and sort the data with that column. However, my date axis in my visual is still not sorted. Some help please? Thank you. I will also enclose my PBI...
Hi fanhui3
I downloaded your sample pbix file and got the following solution:
- Select your column Sort and change the data type to whole number.
- In data view select your column Month & Year > tab Column tools > Sort by column > choose Sort.
The sort order of the chart axis changes immediatly.
With kind regards from the town where the legend of the 'Pied Piper of Hamelin' is at home

HI FrankAT
I tried your method. and just like PAT's method, there are still some months that can't be sorted with the rest of the months. See circled in red of third picture.
At this point, I am starting to think there are problem with my software instead of the solutions.
Oh yea, I would like to add. The problem only persist in scattered graph. Weird.
