dynamic ranking by sorting

Anonymous — Wed, 27 Apr 2022 09:57:01 GMT

Hello all,

I have built a ranking by delivery quantity. As in the image. But now I want that the ranking is automatically adjusted according to my sorting. So if I sort it by the last 14 days the rank is displayed again with 1,2,3 ....

It should not look like this, but then start again with 1.

Thanks!

Anonymous , What do you mean by sort for the last 14 days?

Rank is created on a column or set of column and measure and remains on that.(with all used in rank filter will not work, with allselected filter will work )

You can make it dynamic using a switch

Yes, I want to have a ranking which is always based on the current sorting of the table.

So it would also go a simple counting of the table columns from top to bottom. Is this possible?

Hi:

Do you already have a measure for Delivery Quantity?

Are you ranking Countries or Products, etc? f so it's great if your model has unique dimension tables to connect to your fact table. Also the Date Table should be the source of your date slicer.

Something like

Total Delivered Units = SUM(Table[Total Shipments]) (this will be used in ranking measure.)

Rank = RANKX( ALL( Table[Cat_id_code] ), [Total Delivered Units],, DESC )

* see note below on Customer ranking by Sales.

If you have a data model with customer, product, etc dimension tables a good way to rank, say customers by sales is:

Rank = RANKX( ALL( Customer[Customer Names] ), [Total Sales],, DESC )
