I'm using PowerBI desktop. My requirement is to get top 5 tasks by month. I used the TOP N filtering for tasks and I got a graph like this.
I have to sort these tasks in a decreasing order by the time spent on them. Can anyone please help me with this one.
Solved! Go to Solution.
you want your barchart sort by mont on the x as. and then in a month sort desc from the task.
sometimes yellow bar is first and sometimes the grey bar?
i dont know if that is possbile. a sorting on the legend.
Hi @tulsi
You will see ... symbol in the right top cornr of this chart, click on that and you will see "sort by task". Click on that to sort this by task.
Thanks
Raj
If I sort it by task then the order of the month changes and I don't want that to happen.

Yeah I'm trying to sort the tasks in decreasing order by not changing the order of the months.
