My visualisation is of the format MMMM-YYYY, i want it to be converted to MMM-YY.

I am creating a visualization where the availability is shown month-wise and in a sequence.

I am trying to modify it to MMM-YY, but it is coming in a text format and the graph sequence is disturbed

@Anonymous you have to add anotehr column to sort this colum 

 

Add Month Sort column using

Month Sort = FOMRAT ( Table[Date], "YYYY-MM" )

 

go to modelling tab, select your existing month column, and in sort by column drop down, choose Month Sort

You can create a YYYYMM sort column and mark it as sort column.

 

Month Sort = format(date[date],"YYYYMM")
