Index or Rank for month with Stock-Value

Hi Community,

I have a table with the following structure:

| Year | Month | EndOfMonth | Article No. | Stock Amount

 

The articles do not have a stock quantity in each month. I would now like to write a DAX formula that assigns a rank or index to the month.
For example, if item X has stock quantities in the months of June, August and December, the rank/index should correspond to 1 for June, 2 for August and 3 for December.

 

Thanks in advance,

Max

Hi,

I am not sure how your desired outcome looks like, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

It is for creating a new column, and the result is partitioned by the year and the article number.

I hope the below can provide some ideas on how to create a solution for your semantic model.

expected result CC =
ROWNUMBER (
    Data,
    ORDERBY ( Data[EndOfMonth], ASC ),
    DEFAULT,
    PARTITIONBY ( Data[Year], Data[Article No] ),
    MATCHBY ( Data[EndOfMonth], Data[Article No], Data[Year] )
)
