I had to extract some data out of excel. My field is made up of the full month name and the year.
When I use this field as a dimension I want it to sort correctly by year and then by month within year.
I have tried 10 different things and nothing has worked so far.
I probably could go back to the load script and load the month number instead of the full name. But at this point I am curious as to how I can work with what I already have.
Thanks
I will create a dual field.

dual(MonthYear, YearMonth)
Below is the sample data
MonthYear, YearMonth
January-2019, 201901
Febuary-2019, 201902

In addition to the above solution, sort by numerical YearMonth.
