Hi JustinDoh1 ,

Select the [PayerNameDefined] column, use 'Sort by column' feature in Columns tools and sort the column by the [ReportColumnOrder] column, you will get the result.

v-yingjl Thank you. I was thinking in a harder way. When I searched thru Google, there were so many other solutions related to similar cases, so I thought I have to solve in Power Query (M language).  Also, there was some error on SQL side, so I had to fix it.
