I don't think this is possible in DAX. Please find a visual that has numbered rows built-in.

You can't have a measure that will always return 1 for the first row in a table, 2 for the second... and so on. That's because such a measure would have to return different values for the same data depending on data arrangement/sorting and a measure can return only one value for the same data.

I think you're out of luck.

Darlove, yes i thought so. Actually i work in visual Studio coding. I did now asc. the arcticle name and add an index column. now i try in visual to rankx the index column... 

 

Hope this is the answer for my request.

Anyway thanks for taking care of my issue and reconfirm that I am not that stupid as i still feel 😉 lol.

 

Best regards
