Tableau - How to Sort by Calculated Field

In this tutorial, we will show you how to sort by a calculated field in Tableau. This will allow you to sort by a measure and not only by a dimension which is the way Tableau works out of the box. We will also show you how to create a bar chart in our example even when Tableau trys to make it into a line chart.

    In the current version, You need to drag the Sort By Pill to the first in the Rows, Then the Ascending and Descending works as expected!

    Just wanted to thank you for this elegant solution. My use case was sorting with a 3 level deep table calc but it worked with this technique!

    Hello This video was very Helpful. But I really need you help. My problem is: I have a table Name Employee and having 3 fields names are FirstName, LastName, Address. Now I was to make all field able to do sort a-z and z-a and I found the solution by using combined field and drag it at top most left side. "But now problem is that, if I am trying to sort one field like FirstName (z-a) then rest LastName and address is also having changes at same time but I want only one field at single time." Please reply ASAP sir.

    Do you have an email I could send a tableau file to? I have a funnel chart that is filtering by table down instead of percent of parent total and I can't fix it.
