Sorting data using another field
Hey Anonymous ,
yes, as the error says: There can't be more than one value in the "DateLogged" for the same value in "Concatenate1".
Fix that and it will work.

Hey Anonymous ,
when you use a sort by column each sort by field has to be unique for each value.
For example when you would sort month name by month number, how should Power BI sort if there is a row that says January is month number 1 and another row says January is month number 3.
So you have to make sure the sort by column always returns the same value, for example for January it must return always 1. Check that in your data model and it should work.
Thanks selimovd for the response.
Understand (I think) what you've said but I am trying to sort [Project Name]-[(Date Logged)] with the [Date Logged] field. *- Checked the Data model and the format for this is dd/mm/yyyyy so I can't see how that could ever return a different answer. There may be occassions where 2 different projects get logged on the same day. Is that where the problem is?
