Sorting Legend in a Line Chart

Problem: I cannot sort the legends based on the chosen category's sales proportion, PBI does it based on alphabetical order. Strange given you would have expected this to occur by default like excel....

I hope that something like this will help you:

 

Last Reported Rank =

          RANKX(Categories,
                          CALCULATE(SUM('Sales'[Sales]), 'Sales'[Date] > EOMONTH(NOW(), -1),'Sales'[Date]<= EOMONTH(NOW(), 0))
         ,,DESC)

I assume that yiy have Caregories table where you can setup sorting by this column.
