Sort by quarter dates

Hi,

I have a master table containing transactional data that I then group by quarter and display in a bar and line chart.

My goal is to display the data having the quarter dates (start/ end) in the x-axis, however even after trying sorting and creating a support table to link with the master for the purpose of sorting, it doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas on why?

 

Thank you

 

This is my sorting table

Hi @joao_costa ,

 

Add the index column to tooltips field then you could sort the visual by index directly.

 

Best Regards,
