    Currently, our visuals can only be sorted by alphabetical order. We have some specific customs sorts set up in our data set that do not get pulled into Power BI. It would be helpful to allow more flexibility with the sort feature.

    Please look into this option! Currently, as a workaround, have to have separate tables purely to sort, and end up with around 20 additional tables which slow everything down. Custom sort in PBI Desktop itself would be really useful.

    I just spent 20 minutes searching for this solution only to find its not possible.
    This would be such a big help looking at data for in a fiscal year that is ordered differently than the calendar year.

    Hi, is there any feedback on this? I need to have some improvement on sorting a chart table, I would like to have a custom sort.
