sort by date in Advanced Custom Field

by

I am trying to filter posts with certain values and sort by the date field using ACF module. I have succeeded in filter with package and type. But when i added date sort, its not working. Please help me. Can we filter and sort simultaneously using ACF?

<?php 
$package = $_GET['package'];
$type = $_GET['type'];
$sort = $_GET['sort'];

$filterquery = array('relation' => 'AND');

if (isset($package) && $package != "All")
{
    $filterquery[] =  array(
            'key' => 'package',
            'value' => $package,
            'compare' => '='
        );
}

if (isset($type) && $type != "All")
{
    $filterquery[] =  array(
            'key' => 'type',
            'value' => $type,
            'compare' => '='
        );
}

if (isset($sort))
{
    $filterquery[] =  array(
            'meta_key' => 'sortdate', // name of custom field
            'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
            'order' => 'ASC'
        );
}   
else
{ 
    $filterquery[] =  array(
            'meta_key' => 'sortdate', // name of custom field
            'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
            'order' => 'DESC'
        );

}



  $args = array(
        'posts_per_page'    => 6,
        'cat'       => '4',         
        'meta_query' => $filterquery,


        );          


$query = new WP_Query($args); ?>
