Problem when creating a ranking using several tables in Power BI DAX
- 3 years ago
Variables in DAX aren't really variables, they're constants, so the RevenuePerMonth variable is only calculated once, it is not recalculated for each year / month combination.
Take your code from the variable declaration and use it to create a new measure, and then reference that measure in your ranking code.

Thanks johnt75 for your help. I have made the modifications and right now the metric is working. However, I would like to understand something. If I write this expression the ranking is ok:

In the first version context transition is happening because you are calling a measure. In the second it is not happening and so the same value is being calculated for every row. If you wrapped the SUMX inside CALCULATE then it would work OK.
