Sorting Pivot table with 2 measures by total

Hello, I've created a pivot table of a categorical variable 'C' , and wanted to break down the count of 'C' by columns 'Team'. I am trying to sort by the total count of 'C' descending and tried to apply Sort By first measure = Y, but I'm still seeing lower totals at the top of the table. 

Could someone please advise how to properly sort by the total count? I've attached an image for clarification. Thank you for your help

In the Properties Panel for the chart, go to Sorting and turn off Auto sort for the Calc field.  Then choose "Sort by Expression" and enter the expression for the desired sort  order.  Choose "Ascending".

Thank you. What kind of expression would work?

For instance, COUNT(Calc) is not working

Is Calc a field?  Use the same expression you used for the Measure field.

BTW, in my earlier post, I meant Descending, not Ascending

Yes, COUNT(Calc) aka COUNT(field_name) is not working for some reason.
