    For Date, you can expand the date hierarchy to Quarter level. As to more general custom sorting, you can watch this video Sort By Another Column.

  • Hi,

     

    I would like to sort my column clustered chart by Q'YY.

     

    I have by QTR display column which contains data from Q1'15 to Q3'17, when I create a column chart, the bar chart is showing in the following order Q1'15, Q1'16, Q1'17, Q2'15, Q2'16, Q2'17 and so on..

     

    My requirement is to have a column chart is in order, for example Q1'15, Q2'15, Q3'15, Q4'15, Q1'16 and so on..

     

    How do I achieve it? Please help.
