If it is possible please provide the multiple columns sort . For example I want to sort the table visualization based on Priority and severity

I voted, the number counted up. I hit refresh and the number came back to the number before I voted. Things that make you go hmmmmmml.

Absolutely necessary and a big oversight.

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

I find it truly unbelievable that this feature wasn't included from day 1, and even more so that this request has been active for 43 months without resolution. Excel has had multi-column sorting since at least 2003!

A suggestion: For issues that seem as if there should be a very simple fix, you should provide more detailed explanations of the complexity involved and why the change isn't as simple as it appears.

Because not being able to do basic things like multi-column sorting makes Power BI look REALLY bad. I can't describe how flabbergasted my bosses were when I explained this limitation to them, and how low their opinion of Power BI is as a result.

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

This is a valuable feature in the table visualizations. Ability to sort by multiple attributes.

Seriously? This is pretty crazy ridiculous. Time to start pushing for another BI product at work. I've used so many reporting tools that are better and have all the basic functionality. This is like a fisher price tool. Get it together and fast.
