Custom sort in Pivot table

Hello,

I have a pivot table which has a dimension called "Period name". Period Name is a calculated dimension and is composed of two fields Year & Period

=Year1 & chr(10)&Period.

I have a problem with the sort order. The Period has its own sort order and the year has its own sort order. How can I combine both the sort orders in the pivot table?

The period and Year are in different table.

Attached is an example.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Warrior,

What is your expected output in this pivot.

Try sorting by =only({1}YearId)*100+only({1}PeriodId)
