I completely agree with what many others have shared... your videos are very concise and tremendously helpful, no wasting time, which I greatly appreciate... THANK YOU!

I cannot believe the number of "other" videos I went through where their solution just did not work. My Christmas present this year was finding your excellent and so well explained tutorial on how to make this work.

I especially appreciated the tip about not just adding a sort column to the table and instead use a relationship.

Your solution worked right out of the box and I must remember to always come to your channel first for the proper education.

Thank you so very much for putting this together.

Thank you! Solved a problem I've not been able to figure out for months.

Good tutorial Mynda!!
Creating a Calendar Table can also help solve the second case.
Thanks for these Power BI tips.

Nice tricks Mynda! I was aware of first technique, but liked the concept of using a Dimension table which is useful for handling large data. Thank you so much for sharing! 😊👍

[PrknvinZ]

Your guides were so clear and straightforward. This is soooo helpful! Thank you so much!!!

Great vid and thank you. If I may, one tiny point. At 5:02, it is often useful to summarise all years by month if you're interested in seasonal trends, as an example. No doubt your comment was contextual but I thought it worth a mention. Many thanks for this excellent tut and cheers from Sydney - Dave

Thanks Mynda, I love so much your videos, and they are very useful to improve our PBI skills. It would be great if you can show us a new video with a gateway configuration to try to update automatically the data from the source. Thanks again!!

Thanks queen, I can't believe I had to look at maybe 10 different websites and videos just to figure out there's an easy "sort by" button.

[yiubili]

Thanks for saving my day.... how ironic that it look so many steps yo do a proper sorting here...

[PatGilliland]

The dimension table worked well, but I found that if the "Achievement" column contains numeric rather than text data, it doesn't work
