I'm having issues with sorting by multiple columns within a pivot table.

Essentially the data is currently sorted as follows:

ID Fruit
1 Bananas
2 Cherries
3 Apples


I'd like it to sort by the second column without rearranging the column order:

ID Fruit
3 Apples
1 Bananas
2 Cherries

I have the ID column set to 'Manual' within the fields Autosort settings.
The Fruit field is set to 'Ascending'

Any thoughts on how to get the desired results?

Thanks,

The second column will only automatically sort its items under each of
the first column items. So, all the fruit under ID 1 will sort
alphabetically, as will all the fruit under ID2, etc.

If you want the ID items in a different order, you can manually drag
each item to a different spot in the list. For example, click on the ID
3 cell, then drag its border till it's at the top of the list.
