Sorting Matrix Columns by Measure Total

Hi mrbartuss ,

One not-so-simple way to do this is to replace all the columns in your matrix with measures.

 

Best Regards

Hi mrbartuss ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community.

 

Power BI currently does not support dynamic sorting of matrix columns by measure totals. Sorting is only available for rows, not columns.

The workaround involving individual measures works in static scenarios, but as you've noted, it's not dynamic and doesn’t respond to slicers or filter changes.

As an alternative, consider:

• Swapping columns to rows, where dynamic sorting is supported.

• Exploring custom visuals from AppSource that offer column-sorting capabilities.
