    Sort() is usually delegable, but it depends a bit on the data source type and column type. What do you have for those? For example, lookup or complex data type columns in a Sharepoint list don't handle a delegable Sort().

    @BCLS776The datasource is a SharePoint list and the column is a calculated column.. thanks

    The calculated column is your issue - do you truly need this operation to be delegable? For options to help, check out this thread:

    Hi @johnjohn123 ,

     

    If your data volume is less than 2000, you don't have to worry about delegation issues.

    In addition, I don't recommend you to use calculate column in the list.

    If you want to calculate some values, you can process them in canvas instead of preprocessing in the list.
