    Hi Ramesh4321,

     

    You need to create an index column for the [week_year] column. For example.

    Index = YEAR('Table'[Date])*1000+WEEKNUM('Table'[Date])

    Then select the [week_year] column and sort by index.

    If the amount of data is large, you can use the SUMMARIZE function to create a summary table.

    This is the table I used for testing.

    This is the final sorting result.

    Attached PBIX file for reference.

    Hey Ramesh4321 

     

    There are several options for the solution

    1. Search for three points in the right up corner in the visual "SORT by" and try to sort by week and not by year (assuming that DIM Date is correct or Date column)
    2. Create an index column for the relevant columns and then do Sort by Index

     

    If that does not help please share a file or more details and I will solve it for you

    Goodluck!
