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

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

Much needed please. Sorting by months across years is very much needed.

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

as requested earlier, this should also be a feature for multi-column sorting for matrix visual.

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

Not to mention that we should have the flexibility to select the sort order of each column as ascending or decending order.

Thank you!

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

Now that you've done this for tables, do this for matrices as well, it's unbelievable you've sorted one and not the other

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

This is a basic Pivot Table function, please add to PowerBI without having to create special counting columns

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

Hierarchical sorting mechanism needed in visuals ...
Work around is add a numeric column to dummy up the sort. ie 3 tier sort the column would be nnn format where each position relates to each tier. Also need a way to hide this special sorting column

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

This should be a standard feature.

RE: Add a multiple columns sort featue

Yep we need this. Sorting in Power Query editor isn't the best either, not when the table visual contains fields from multiple tables. Unless I have to restructure my things and merge queries in Power Query, JUST to sort by date, then a column, then another column...
