re-order table visual column values

Hi 

 

I have a table visual I am trying to re-arrange the order of the column values, however there seems to be no option? drag-drop dose not work?

 

Thanks 🙂

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You need to create a new table and create a one-to-many relationship with the fact table, and then reorder it. Or create a custom sort column in the table.

Please refer to these:

@Anonymous , In the visualization pane, you can see all fields. Move them up and down

@Anonymous , That can be done using sorting. Click on the column header, or use three dots. If you do not like sort order you need to create a sort column
