I should be able to order the "legend" and the values for each legend category in a stacked bar chart. This is similar to "series order" feature in Excel

when legend positioning is 'left' or 'right', it's in inverse order to the stacked bars themselves!

Currently "Sort By Column" Option is not enabled for PowerBI Service as Data Source. I can understand Modeling is disabled, but why custom sort.
There are times When I want to sort by a column which I don't Want in Report.
RE: Custom order for legend
We should have the ability to sort the rows appearing in a table or matrix based on a column that is not being displayed (eg a SortOrder field). Currently possible in SSRS (by default it respects the data order).
This seems to work for charts but not for tables. For example i would like HR row data in the table to be displayed in order of Job Seniority, which is only indicated by a numerical field in the source data that i do not want to display. Currently the table defaults to alphabetical order and can only be corrected by including the SortOrder column.

In Tableau you can drag the fields in a chart into a different sort order and Tableau remembers it as a new sort order when the field is used again. Is PowerBI getting this feature?
My department is evaluating whether we can switch from Tableau to PowerBI and we would need this feature.
