Hi @Anonymous ,

There are two ways to sort that you can refer.

1. The first way is sorted by existed column, such as name or value.

2. The second way is to create a new dim table that contains the column that you want to sort, and add a numeric column to sort.

By the way, we need to create a relationship between two tables.

Then we can use the Table(2)’s name to show the data, and sort by column [Sort].

If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please share the pbix again? Because we don’t have a permission to open it.

You can also upload your files to OneDrive For Business and share the link here.

BTW, pbix as attached.
