Does anyone know how I would sort this waterfall chart by month and year?
January is 2021 the other months are 2020. I would like the chart to be ordered by month with the last month being January because it is in 2021
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @dw700d
You can try to create a column with sort order as its value. Then sort Month column by this new column. For more details, you can refer Sort a Column with a Custom Order in Power BI.
