Hi,
I'm trying to create a ranking of the accounts count of this table.
That table is a duplicate of another table that has the real data. I created that table using the command "grouping by" and with the operation count.
Basically, I want to know the rank of every ACCOUNT according to the number of appearances (Count) that every account has.
I created this formula, but it doesn't work, as it simply shows "1" for all accounts.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
You can use this measure
Rank Account Name = RANKX( ALL(Table3[Account Name]), CALCULATE(SUM(Table3[Count])),,DESC,Dense)

@Anonymous You are getting 1 because CALCULATE inititates Context Transition and adds the currently iterated Account Name to the filter context and the formula becomes,
=
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( 'Tabla Account Count' ),
'Tabla Account Count'[Account Name] = "Something", -- Coming from context transition
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Tabla Account Count', 'Tabla Account Count'[Count] )
)
Since ALLEXCEPT being a CALCULATE modifier is evaluated after context transition the COUNTROWS that you get are for whole table and can only be filtered by the Count column.
Try this code instead:
Rank =
RANKX (
ALL ( 'Tabla Account Count'[Account Name] ),
CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( 'Tabla Account Count' ) ),
,
DESC,
DENSE
)
Hi. Thanks! But I received the same number 1 for all accounts in the ranking 😞
@Anonymous , why allexpect
Rank =
RANKX (
ALL ( 'Tabla Account Count'[Account Name] ),
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( 'Tabla Account Count' ),
),
,
DESC,
DENSE
)
this will rank for COUNTROWS ( 'Tabla Account Count' )

The following error appears :
Argument '2' in CALCULATE function is required
I don't know exactly what to put since I'm new in DAX 😕
