I want my rank to start at 0 and go from there. Currently it is ranking my 0 values and the next lowest value as 1 and then ranking
=RANKX(FILTER(ALLSELECTED( [Program]), [NUMBER] ), [NUMBER],,ASC)
[Number] is a measure that is summing a value with some other conditions present
Expected Result
Program Number Rank
A | 151 | 5 |
B | 235 | 6 |
C | 123 | 4 |
D | 0 | 1 |
E | 12 | 2 |
F | 55 | 3 |
Actual Result
Program Number Rank
A | 151 | 5 |
B | 235 | 6 |
C | 123 | 4 |
D | 0 | 1 |
E | 12 | 1 |
F | 55 | 3 |
0 and the next lowest value are both getting ranked 1, which will not work for what I am trying to do.
I tried putting SUMX() around [NUMBER] in the ALLSELECTED, while that does work when the data is on its own, it breaks when I have to put the entire formula together (Two separate ranks for a matrix using ISINSCOPE() to change which rank is being applied)
I also tried setting the rank of 0 to 1 and then ranking +1. While this works for instances that there is one 0 present, if there are multiple 0s, I need the rank to skip. So both the 0s would be ranked 1 and then the next lowest value would be ranked 2, when I need it to be rank 3.
Any idea? I feel like I am not understanding something as the rank should just be applied to how the values are presented...
@FreemanZ That works for when I am not working in a matrix. I should have made this more clear. I have a matrix with both program and subprogram, and I need to have a rank for each. So the formula that I am actullay using looks like the below
RANK =
VAR _program = RANKX(ALLSELECTED( [Program]), [NUMBER],,ASC)
VAR _subProgram = RANKX(ALLSELECTED( [subProgram]), [NUMBER],,ASC)
RETURN
if(isinscope(program),_program,if(isinscope(subProgram),_subProgram))
This returns a proper rank for the program, but the subProgram has all the same rank
@Moonc , if both are on row and program is first and sub program is second then try like
RANK =
VAR _program = RANKX(ALLSELECTED( [Program]), [NUMBER],,ASC)
VAR _subProgram = RANKX(ALLSELECTED( [subProgram]), [NUMBER],,ASC)
Switch (True()
isinscope(subProgram,_subProgram,
isinscope(program),_program
)
The first one or the parent is always isinscope for the child

@amitchandak This does not work, I am seeing the program ranks correct, but the subprogram ranks are incorrect. I don't see any pattern in the rank that would help me understand.
