Sort to show error on top in pivot table

Hi all,

I currently have a pivot table which has column named 'alias'. I was wondering is there a way to sort that column such that the value "error" always shows up on top, then the remaining values will show under it.

The default alphabetical orders don't work here as in both alphabetical and reverse alphabetical order, error does not show up ontop and instead shows up somewhere in the middle. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You could try something like this

| eval alias=if(alias="error"," error",alias)
| sort alias
| eval alias=if(alias=" error","error",alias)
