Thanks for the reply from @Samarth_18 , please allow me to provide another insight: 
Hi  @Prag_02 ,

Whether [sort] is created on [FY/Quarter] itself logically calculated, in the process of calculation, if A depends on B, at the same time B depends on A, the two objects are interdependent on each other then the engine does not know which object to be calculated first, leading to this error

Understanding circular dependencies in DAX - SQLBI

 

Here are two ways you can try:

1. Power BI default sorting is alphabetical, in general, in text format 2024Q1 this data style will be sorted normally, you can click on the yellow mark in accordance with the [FY/Quarter] to sort

2. You can manually create an Index by using Enter data or Power Query to create a new table with only [FY/Quarter].

Enter data:

vyangliumsft_1-1721022853434.png

In Power Query:

Add Column – Index Column – From 1.

Using Sort Table -- [FY/Quarter]  -- Column tools – Sort By column – [Index].

Joins the relationship between two tables:

Result:

Are you creating a sorting column on the top of any custom column?

Is it possible for you to share your sample file?

Hi @Prag_02 ,

 

You can use the sort by another column option in case you have not used yet.
