Hello all,
can someone please tell me how to sort the years in the different columns (see picture)?
I want the first column to say 2021, the second column 2020 and the third column 2019.
Thanks

Hello @DagdasAlbag ,
You need to sort the year column in your data in descending order.
If you still see issue, consider adding a conditional column in your data and use the sort by column option to order is according to your need.

Hi @DagdasAlbag
You can enter a table 'SortTable' with Year and SortOrder columns. SortOrder values are based on Year values descendingly. Sort Year column by SortOrder column.
Then create a relationship between SortTable and Original Table on Year column.
At last, select SortTable's Year column into the matrix.
