A developer added Computed column on report using formula: concat(Month," ",Year)

But by default sorting options on this computed column are disabled.

Is there any configuration by which we can enable sorting on computed column?

Sorting on computed columns is not supported. 

 

The reason for this is: the computation is defined in our Platform Expression Language (Platform EL), which is evaluated in java after retrieving the current page of results.  Perhaps in a future release we will consider evaluating the Platform EL in the database itself, which would allow for global sorting/paging.  But this is not currently planned for any upcoming release.
