Epic idea: Better sort and filter tabular experiences

[Miguel_Myers]

Matrix visuals could significantly enhance the user experience by emulating Excel's intuitive sorting, searching, and filtering capabilities, even for hierarchical columns. This idea would the current limitation in Power BI's matrix visuals, which lack a comparable experience to Excel's established standard for data manipulation.

This would be very helpful as there are some items that we always want to show up in a specific order,

Need this as well to ensure certain tables remain in the order set.

Come on, why is this functionality missing? It is the most basic function of any tool. Well - it works fine in Excel - maybe we'll stick to that instead of this pseudo Excel.

this is very needful.

Sometimes the sort feature is just not needed. It would be good to turn it off on those occasions. Just a simple slide control in formatting would do it.....it does everything else but make coffee!

Definately need this disabled as we are trying to plot information in a very specific order... it will cause issues in the particular scenario I'm developing

Important basic feature. Need it urgently.

[john_winter]

Very standard feature that we need desperately. All the workarounds involving invisible columns and DAX code are clumsy and difficult to maintain.

I need it too
