Dynamic Date Axis Sorting of Text Data Type

[Alisea_MI]

Hi, Power Bi experts!

I need to set up a Dynamix Date Axis that shows dates on different granularity levels depending on what I choose in the slicer pane. I have created a table with the code below and it works fine to change the granularity on the axis.

HOWEVER the sorting is wrong (please see the picture below).

I am not able to sort the "VisualDate" column by the "Date" column. It gives me an error.

The "Visuals Date" column itself has a Text format.

Could anyone please help me with any ideas of how I can make the sorting work?

Thank you so much in advance!

The workaround we have found was that to put Year first, e.g. YYYY-MM-DD, YYYY-W, YYYY-MM. In this case its's being sorted correctly.

@amitchandak  Yes, I don't have 1-1 mapping since it's a dynamic axis with Day, Week, Month and Year granularity. So my week is formatted as "W52-20".  Do you by any chance know any possible workarounds?

@Alisea_MI , you get this value when you do not have one to one mapping between the sort column and sorting column, Please check dates that; what is not matching, there are two sort order(date)  for the same vosual date
