I have a stacked column chart with a date hierarchy as the x-axis values. Chart is showing the Month date hierarchy values. Problem is that there's three months November, December, and January. Nov & Dec are for year of 2016 and January is for 2017. January should be third but instead the chart sorts by alphabetical order. I see no chart option to sort my x-axis labels by chronological order. This seems like something people will encounter often. There should be a simple way for users to to fix this in their powerbi charts that use a date hierarchy. By the way, the image I added below is blank on this post editor, not sure if it will show up after I post.
