    Hi jeevanabattu ,

    According to my test, this may not be possible. How should it be displayed if you want to sort by Finish field using the following sample data?

    Perhaps you can consider creating a table visual instead of matrix, then you can refer the following document by use multi-column sort for table. But doing so will lose the hierarchical levels...

    Multi-column sort for tables

    Best Regards

    Hi Siva,

     

    No, I have to place the field which I want to sort in the First Row like in the below screenshot I want to sort Matrix visual based on Finish Date, so placed it in the First row.

     

     

    Thanks,

    Jeevana.
