Pie Chart Order of Slices (NOT accordingly to letters of numbers order)

Hello folks,

 

I am struggling to use an Excel Pivot Table function, like the one you pick a label and simply drag to the left or right in order to change the presentation of a Pie Chart (or any other chart). Let me enphasize that I DO NOT wish to order ascending or descending, because the  labels are "TEXTS", so it doesn´t matter what they are, but there is an order I wish to follow. For exaple, period "1-30 days" first, then "30-60 days", then "60-120 days" and finally "Above 120 days".

 

I cannot think that it is not part of Power BI structure, so please help!

It is important that you use "Sort by column" from the upper menu after you have selected the Category column. From the options you will see, select the Order column. 

 

It is not the same as just ordering a table by a column, it is ordering a column by another column.
