Month or weekday name column without sort-by column
"Month or weekday name column without sort-by column" is one of the reliability checks Auditabi runs on a Power BI semantic model. n text column(s) hold month or weekday names without a sortByColumn. It is a medium-severity finding: the model still works, but results are wrong in some filter contexts, slow, or fragile under change. Add a numeric MonthNumber / DayNumber column and set it as Sort by column.
What is detected
n text column(s) hold month or weekday names without a sortByColumn. Visuals sort them alphabetically (April, August, December…).
Why it matters
Wrong in some filter contexts, slow, or fragile under change. Fix in the next iteration.
How to fix it
Add a numeric MonthNumber / DayNumber column and set it as Sort by column.
