Hi sdhn,

You need the month number in your table to sort by. Once you have that, select the text month column and choose sort by, then select Month Number.

Hope this helps.

    You'll need to add one.
    There are a few different ways to do this, in DAX, choose new column and enter this...
    Month Number = MONTH(DATEVALUE(2021 & "/" & 'Date'[Month] & "/" & 1))
    
    You'll need to rename the 'Date'[Month] to match your 'Table'[Column].
