Hey,
I Created a date table and related the table to my Sales table, which contains a sales per day (date).
Now i Created a "Line and clustered column chart", at the shared axis i put the month from the date table, and at the values i put the sales from my sales table. the visualization shows me the sales sorted from the biggest to the smallest, instead a chronological order (January - June). How i sort the axis chronological?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hey thanks!
Another question - now at the total number there is no comma, how can I add a comma seperator?
@Anonymous
pick your formatted column at the right pane, then set decimal numbers in Column/Measure tools ribbon
Thanks! Other issue (instead opening new discussion..):
I Have a graph that orderd in alphabetical order:
In my Date table i created a new column with the number of the day at the week (The full date is in hebrew language):
Now I'm trying the solution you gave me before (Sort the X axis by DayOrder at the "Sort By Column" button), and i get this error message:
What can be wrong? Thanks!
