This recipe explains what are the different ways of sorting table data in Tableau

Recipe Objective - What are the different ways of sorting table data in Tableau?

Create the table.

Step 1:-

Connect the "Sample-Superstore" data set.

Step 2:-

Drag the "Region" and "Sub-Category" dimensions in the "column" and "row" shelf, respectively.

Step 3:-

Drag the "sales" measure and drop it onto the table.

Step 4:-

Select the "Analysis" pane and click on "Totals," and select the "Show Row Grand Total".

1. Sorting from the Toolbar.

Select the sort button (ascending or descending) in the toolbar.

2. Sorting according to the specific field.

Step 1:-

Click on the drop-down of the "Sub-Category" in the "row shelf."

Step 2:-
