Thank you so much (Christian Cox), you saved me!

It took some time to get back to you, I was testing it all out.

I am facing some issues using this method, when I need to sort the information.

The Documents have categories and I need to display them sorted in categories, but I can't figure out how. I promise I've tried, a lot. But I don't think I really understand this.

Also, - one type of document is invoices, they will be displayed in their "invoice" category, but these I also need to sort by which month they have been posted.

Can you help me with ideas?

Thanks for your time,
Best regards
Lykke

Dear Lykke,
Views is using wordpress class WP_Query to query posts, see document:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters

There isn't any option to sort the result by taxonomy.

In your case you can try with a nested view:
1) Parent view list terms of taxonomy "categories"
2) Child view list "document" posts which are assigned with term from parent view, see our document:
