Report not grouping and sorting correctly
I have a report that I'm trying to group by 'year' first and then by 'month'. The 'year' is sorted by 'Ascending' and the month is sorted by 'descending'. I'm trying to build a view where I will see the upcoming emails that we have scheduled to go out to students. For the ones scheduled in 2023, the report is working just fine - it's listing the upcoming October, then November and then December emails. When it gets to the 2024 portion of the report, I can't figure out why the months aren't listing correctly. It's not sorting alphabetically and I can't figure out the reasoning behind why it's listing certain months first. I've attached an image to hopefully illustrate how it's showing up.

Hi,
The quick way I can think of is to fix your month column by adding a number before the month (like below) and then on your report, make the month sorted alphabetically.
01_January
02_February
03_March
04_April
05_May
06_June
07_July
08_August
09_September
10_October
11_November
12_December
