In reports developed in Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC), regardless of the connection type used—whether through the semantic model, direct connections, or other sources—it is currently not possible to define a custom sort order for dimension columns (members) on chart axes. The available sorting options are limited to alphabetical order or sorting based on metric values (e.g., ascending or descending by a measure).
These options do not meet the presentation logic required in various analytical scenarios, where it is essential to maintain a specific custom order of members (e.g., Short Term, Long Term, Simulation), defined according to business rules.
We suggest that OAC allow users to configure a custom display order for dimension members to better support analytical needs, beyond the standard sorting formats currently available.
