    Re: Month-year (Apr-18) in Pivot table in an alphabetical order instead of chronological o

    i dont have power pivot an my mac vesion
    @TMS suggested using in column C A2+0
    then if you Copy C
    and use a Paste Special > value into column A
    now column A is setup as a date

    Now the pivot table will order by date , as my example

    The logic is that you need dates , in order to sort by the date , otherwise if text , it will sort alphabetically and not in date order

    did my example spreadsheet actually give you want you wanted ?

    I can't replicate the above steps. I haven't used it before.
