Hi @Vinod_G_245 

 

when creating your weeknumber column please use the following formula in power query.

 

"KW" & Text.PadStart(Number.ToText([WeekNumOfYear]),2,"0")

then it should sort correctly.

 

Best regards
Michael

Hi Mike,

Week of year is in text format in calendar table.

Please on top tell Power BI in the visual to sort ascending by the week and not by the value
