df = pd.pivot_table(vp_clients, values='hours', index=['client', 'month'], aggfunc=sum)
Which returns a pivot table with three columns (client, month, hours). Each client has 12 months (Jan-Dec) and each of those months has a hours for that month.
hours

A April 203.50
August 227.75
December 159.75
February 203.25

C April 203.50

December 159.75
February 203.25
January 199.25
I want to sort this pivot table by the months but keep the client column in tacked.
hours
client month
A January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
B January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
C January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
The sorting issue is fixed with the answer below from Scott. Now I want to add a row to each client with the total hours used.
hours
client month
A January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
Total 1000.34
B January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
Total 1000.34
C January 203.50
February 227.75
March 159.75
April 203.25
May 199.90
Total 1000.34
Any help will be greatly appreciated
vp_clients['month'] = pd.Categorical(vp_clients['month'],
ordered=True,
categories=['January','February','March',
'April','May','June','July',
'August','September','October',
'November','December','Total'])
df = pd.pivot_table(vp_clients, values='hours', index=['client', 'month'], aggfunc=sum)
df = df.dropna()
pd.concat([df,df.sum(level=0).assign(month='Total').set_index('month', append=True)]).sort_index()
Output:
hours
client month
A January 11.25
February 16.25
April 11.25
August 11.25
December 16.25
Total 66.25
B January 11.25
February 16.25
April 8.25
August 11.25

C January 11.25

Let's use pd.Categorical:
vp_clients['month'] = pd.Categorical(vp_clients['month'],
ordered=True,
categories=['January','February','March',
'April','May','June','July',
'August','September','October',
'November','December'])
df = pd.pivot_table(vp_clients, values='hours', index=['client', 'month'], aggfunc=sum)
df.dropna()
Output:
hours
client month
A January 11.25
February 16.25
April 11.25
August 11.25
December 16.25
B January 11.25
February 16.25
April 8.25
August 11.25
December 16.25
C January 11.25
February 16.25
April 14.25
August 11.25
December 16.25
