Sorting a table using multiple columns
Hi All, Is it possible to sort a table using multiple columns? My table looks like this and i would like to sort by "Year" first and then by "Month". Is it possible?

I see this tread is quite old, but sorting a visual by one column and then a second column is as simple as clicking the 1st column header to sort ascending or decending. Then simply hold the <Shift> key down and click on the header of the second column.
Of course you can just keep the <Shift> pressed and click on a 3rd, 4th etc until happy.
I hope this helps.

As of March 2020 it is now possible from the visual side by using shift+click on the column headers. For more info: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-march-2020-feature-summary/#_Multi-column_sort
