Sorting Month Year

[Kushal_Chawda]

Dear All,

I have created two fileds Month & Monthyear.

I want to display Month as Apr to Mar financial year wise. Apr..May..Mar.

When I am taking Month as dimension it is fine. I am getting month starting from Apr .

But when I am loading Monthyear.. I am getting the Monthyear like. Apr-2012, Apr-2013... May-2012, May 2013... Jun 2013,Jun 2012

But I want to display it as Apr-2012, May-2012, Jun 2012...Mar 2012, Apr 2013, May 2013....Mar-2013

I am confused how do i sort it

If sorting Monthyear numerically doesn't help then it's a field with string values. You won't be able to sort that easily. In that case try to create it as a date field in the script. If you have a date field you can use that: date(monthstart(MyDateField),'MMM-YYYY') as Monthyear. If all you have is the Monthyear field with strings try: date(date#(Monthyear,'MMM-YYYY'),'MMM-YYYY') as Monthyear.
