在Power BI桌面中对字段列表进行排序

Question

I need to sort a very long list fields in Power BI that I need in a special order - not the default sort by name/number.

My dataset looks like this:

and I created another table to use for sorting:

I am stuck from here. I think I need to create a relation between the to tables and then use it to sort the field list. But I do not know where to start.

The order I have now looks like this:

Assuming you're sorting in Power Query, then:

1 Sort table SortOrder by column SortOrder :

= Table.Sort(#"Previous Step",{{"SortOrder", Order.Ascending}})

2 Sort table Data by list SortOrder[ColumnName] :

= Table.Sort(#"Previous Step",SortOrder[ColumnName])

EDIT

It seems you're actually asking how to change the order in which fields are displayed in the Fields Pane

This is currently not possible - fields are always displayed in alphabetical order.

The only workaround just now would be to rename your fields so they display in your required order - eg:

01_ClmName_A
02_ClmName_C
03_ClmName_E
04_ClmName_B
05_ClmName_Q
06_ClmName_F
