Hi Elisa112
I suspect your 'date/month' column is actually text and in your chart it is sorting alphabetically in descending order S -> A
You need to use a proper date column like this
The data will then sort correctly

Hi PhilipTreacy
thanks for your assistance, my tables looks like this:
I also have a customer table with dates such as (referral date, start date). So I created a measure to calculate the total customers but the visual shows the months in the wrongorder. I have tried creating a sorting column on my customer table but I get the following error when I try this solution
Any further help much appreciated.
