Sorting Multiple Columns

Sorting or ranking fields should be one of the most common requirements in our daily work.  However, when we need to compare with multiple columns, it will not be suitable to use the rank function. Therefore, I would like to introduce a function that can help us meet our needs more easily.

Usage scenarios:

Sample data:

Sort multiple columns with filter

Condition: Group, Quality ASC, Sales DESC and Group not equal to D

Formula:

formula=

COUNTROWS (

    FILTER (

        'Sample',

        ISONORAFTER (

                'Sample'[Group], SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Sample'[Group] ), ASC,

                'Sample'[Quality], MAX ( 'Sample'[Quality] ), ASC,

                'Sample'[Sales], SUM ( 'Sample'[Sales] ), DESC

        )

    )

)

Result:
