Issue with TOPN and RANKX with no ties
I have a table visual and it has multiple columns present in it. I am trying to get the TOPN based on a particular column, even after there are no ties, it shows more than the required number. I have also used a RANKX function DAX but it has been returning 1 always.
Measure
RANKING = RANKX(ALL(Table Name), CALCULATE(SUM(Column Name(measure))). But it keeps throwing 1 itself.
Lets say I have numbers below
| A | B | C | D | E | H |
| ABC | Solid | 12345 | 0% | 123 | 1 |
| DEF | Liquid | 12345 | 2% | 456 | 1 |
| GHI | Gas | 23456 | 4% | 789 | 1 |
| JKL | Solid | 45678 | 5% | 101 | 1 |
From the above example. Let me consider I want to calculate RANK for column E from the above table. But with the measure used I get Rank as 1 for all the rows i.e. Column H.
Can someone provide me with a better solution? It happens for TOPN too even if there are no ties.
Hi Anonymous ,
The field [E] is a fact field in the table or a measure? It is a measure, could you please provide its formula? Please create a measure as below and check if you can get the correct rank values...
RANKING = RANKX ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[E] ) ),,, DENSE )In addition, you can refer the following threads to solve your problem.
Rank Product = RANKX ( ALL ( MyData[Product] ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( MyData[Quantity] ), ALLEXCEPT ( MyData, MyData[Product] ) ) )Total Sales = SUM ( sales[sales amount] ) SalesRank = RANKX ( ALLSELECTED ( sales[employee number] ), [Total Sales] )If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some raw(fake) data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
