Sort - Month(Date)&'-'&Year(Date)

Hi All,

I am using Month(Date)&'-'&Year(Date) expression in my dimension in bar chart and i want it to be sorted Month and then year wise, Ex-

Jan-13, Feb-13.. and so on.

I see that the expression has been sorted properly but for some reason Oct-2013 and Nov-2013 is getting displayed at the end after Sep-2017.

Please help me get this fixed.

Thanks,

Monu

Try Sort by Expression Date(Monthstart(Date),'MMM-YYYY')

Hi,

why don't use

MonthName(Date)

instead of Month(Date)&'-'&Year(Date) ?

MonthName() is Dual Function.

=MonthName('13/06/2017')

Regards,

Antonio

Just give a try by using Date(Monthstart(Date),'MMM-YYYY') as Dim and sorting check Numeric ascending/descending
