I have looked through some other threads and articles online but I can't sort out what my issue is that I'm having with RANKX.
My goal is to have a ranking that ranks by user ID, and will auto update the ranking based on the filters applied to my table.
I have am using this formula for my RankX:
RANKX = RANKX(ALLSELECTED('Non Overlapping') , [Average Personal Time],,DESC,Dense )
Here you can see the results for my "RANKX" column aren't coming out correctly. My intended output would be row 1 to be 1, then 2, 3, etc.
Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.
This took some trial and error, but I ended up solving my issue. One change I am going to make is I would like for the ranking to not duplicate the ranking in the event of a tie and I would like the ranking to update when I filter the data, but other than those changes it looks like this is working.
Rank X Personal Time =
RANKX(ALL('Non Overlapping'[User ID]), CALCULATE(SUM('Non Overlapping'[After Hours] ) , ALLEXCEPT('Non Overlapping', 'Non Overlapping'[User ID])),,DESC,Dense)
Hi,
I cannot know how your datamodel looks like, but please try something like below.
Or, please share your sample pbix file's link.
RANKX measure =
RANKX (
SUMMARIZE (
ALLSELECTED ( 'Non Overlapping' ),
'TableName1'[Group],
'TableName2'[Region],
'TableName3'[Division],
'TableName4'[UserID],
'TableName5'[Specialities]
),
[Average Personal Time],
,
DESC,
DENSE
)
Here's what our data looks like. The file is rather large right now and hase some sensitive data, but if you need more information I can provide that.
The measure for Average Personal Time looks like this:
Average Personal Time 3 = IFERROR(
SUM('Non Overlapping'[After Hours]) /
DISTINCTCOUNT('Non Overlapping'[Login Number]) /
(CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Non Overlapping'[User ID]), FILTER('Non Overlapping', 'Non Overlapping'[After Hours]>0)) +0)
, 0)
