Hello @AnujaDeshpande 

 

Give this a try

 

Right-click the table/matrix → Properties → Sorting tab.
• Add a sort rule with the target field and set the order to Ascending

 

Right-click the column header text box → Text Box Properties → Interactive Sorting.
• Check Enable interactive sorting.
• Under Choose what to sort, select:
• Detail rows for individual rows.
• Groups for grouped data.
• Set Sort by to the relevant field 

Hello @nilendraFabric 
Can you provide example for Add a sort rule with the target field.
