    1. Add a Custom Sort Column:

      • In your data table, create a new column named something like "Shift Order."
      • Assign the value 1 to "General" shifts and 2 to "Third" shifts.
      Start Time End Time Shift Shift Order
      08:0016:00General shift1
      16:0000:00Third shift2
    2. Sort Your Data:

      • Go to your column chart settings.
      • Find the sorting options.
      • Sort by "Shift Order" instead of the "Shift" label.

    This should arrange your shifts in the desired order, with "General shift" appearing first, followed by "Third shift."

      Hi Suresh604 

      I have added one more column ShiftOrder. You mean that, we need to add this Shiftorder in the X axis of bar graph? Also, may I know, where is the column sorting option?
