I am having issues creating a RANKX function that ranks values that are in the same period. My data contains multiple cities with multiple years and quarters for each city (Ex: Dallas for 1Q 2021, 2Q 2021..../Phoenix for 1Q 2021, 2Q 2021...). For each period I would like to rank the cities with regards to a specific metric (i.e vacancy). I have tried to accomplish this both through adding a column and meaures but have been unable to make it work.
My current measure formula is:
@jjones90274 , Try measure like
Rankx(allselected(Table[City]) , CALCULATE(SUM('Costar Data'[Vacancy Rate])), , desc,dense)
Rankx(filter(allselected(Table[City], Table[Qtr Year]), [Qtr Year] =max(Table[Qtr Year]) , CALCULATE(SUM('Costar Data'[Vacancy Rate])), , desc,dense)

I also tried another method that got me close but it is still off. It does not seem to be ranking properly and the ranking does not start at 1 (see below):
The formula for GSVacancy Rank is:
Thanks for the reply @amitchandak! I gave the first measure a try and I am still getting duplicate rankings (see below)
For reference I have included a snapshot of the relationships I have in the model.
The data I am using has both past dates with historical data and future dates with forcasted data. I tie the two data sources together through the calendar and market key tables. In my report I have slicers for Date (Year and Qtr) and Market.
