Hi,
I need to add row numbers to one matrix visualisation that I made. Since the column that is used for that is based on a letter format instead of numbers, I added an index column in Power Query for this column.
The plan was to write a measure with rankx based on this index column, but it doesn't work as I want it to. Apparently I am not understanding how exactly this measure works.
For example:
- combining Rankx with an ALL filter gives me either a mistake (no results shown), or doesn't recognize the index column
- while removing ALL and working only the index column, I need an agregation command that doesn't work.
For instance this leads to nowhere, since MIN can only show "1" for each rank.
Hi @Berl21 ,
You can add the index column directly into the matrix.
You can add the index column to row first, and then add the other columns.
Hope this helps you.

Hi,
I am not sure how your desired outcome looks like, but please try below.
Row Number 2 =
RANKX ( ALL ( Account_Liste ), CALCULATE ( MIN ( Account_Liste[Index] ) ) )
