In a bar chart displaying Sales by Sub-Category, you want "Phones" first, "Accessories" second, and all others in any order. Which Sort dialog choice lets you reorder the dimension values manually?
The Manual option in the Sort dialog disables automatic sorting rules and exposes a list of the dimension's members. You can then drag individual values up or down to create a custom sequence such as "Phones", "Accessories", followed by the remaining categories. The other options-Data Source Order, Alphabetic, and Field-determine order automatically based on source order, alphabetic order, or the values of another field, so they do not allow interactive re-ordering.
