Whole Number Data Type for Manually Entered Data Not Working

Hi,

 

I needed to create a custom dimension, so I used Enter Data in Power Query Editor to create the following table:

 

oppstageIDOpportunity Stage
1Initial
2Technical Pre-Sales
3Demo
4Proposal Developed
5SOW
6Active Project
7Active No Project

 

I set the data type for oppstageID to Whole Number. I now need to use this in a Tooltip on a Funnel Chart in order to sort by oppstageID. However it shows it as Count of oppstageID, rather than reading the column as a number like I specified:

Any idea why it doesn't think my column is a number?


Thanks

@Anonymous , You can use First or Last. It will need an aggregation just make sure the data group at the same level as the axis.

@Anonymous ,

 

Tooltip only returnes 1 value, so you need to aggregate it.

As @amitchandak  said, click with the right button on the oppstageID inside the tooltip box and change it to First/Last.

First/Last isn't an option.

 

Sum works.

I don't undertand what you mean by First or Last and data group at the same level as the axis, please clarify.
