issue with month display on slicer

Hej All, 

 

Would someone be able to help me out with understanding why whilst using Slicer (new), the sort order puts December after January? The slicer is based on Month Column created as custom from Registration Date.

 

Thank you in Advance!

Hello,

 

Usually power Bi will not follow the chronological order when you are using month/day name, you have to create a custom column with the month number then select the month name column go to sort by column and select the month number column, with that you should be able to fix your issue. Find below some screenshots:
