Hello, when i import this sheet i am having issues.
When format of Date column is set to Date then many of the cells are blank. If I import as a string they are all there. If I then set to Date the all disappear.
For the property value, when I import as a float and sort date then it loses several decimal places. Any sort of sorting makes me lose data.
When I inspect your file, I see that the date column is formatted as normal number, not date. Also, the Price column is inconsistent when it comes to the format. Somewhere you have 129,500,000 but then again you have 973,5. So the plugin sees the first as integer, and the second as float. It decides to use float, and that's why some data is coming out wrong.
You need to configure your CSV file so that it's format is the same as in wpDataTables (date and number formats). This can be done through general settings of wpDataTables.
I used the file to create a table, and replicated your issue, but you can get it to work. Please access Date column's settings, go to the Data tab, and select the date format:
When you do this, the table will display the dates normally:

Hi again Cathal.
I used the file to create a table, and replicated your issue, but you can get it to work. Please access Date column's settings, go to the Data tab, and select the date format:
When you do this, the table will display the dates normally:
They have just been sorted in Ascending fashion.
