Hi All,
I am a beginner trying to work with POWER BI DESKTOP.
I am trying to show a monthly trend of claims paid however, the months are not shown in the axis title in chronological order. Can you help with where am I going wrong?
Thanks,
Bhamini

You need to create an additional column with month number like MonthNumber = MONTH(table[date]) then select the Month Processed column, go to Modeling Tabl, Sort by Column choose the new column Monthnumber

Hi Fowmy,
I tried following the steps you shared but weirdly it keeps showing this error when I add a custom column and write the formula =MONTH(Table[date]).
Please tell me how can I fix this.
