Hi amitchandak ,

 

Thank you for your message. However, I still have the same issue.

 

For the first link you shared, I dont see the option of "sort by" within the slicer, maybe that works only for certain graphs?

 

As for the second link, I had already created a column and used it to sort the entire table using that column however the slicer doesn't seem to be affected by it and still displays the items alphabetically.

 

Any ideas of how to make it work?

 

thanks

Laura

    hi v-lili6-msft ,

     

    many thanks for your reply! That worked nicely 🙂

     

    Just a small question related to that, how could I do the same but order the items in desceding id order? I tried clicking twice in order column but doesn't seem to make a difference.

     

    Many thanks in advance,

     

    best regards

    Laura
