@LelecoLima Please try the following calcualted column

 

Month = MONTH(DATEVALUE(1&"-"&LEFT(Data[Periods],3)&"- 2016"))

 

If Feb is written as fev in the default date settings of your computer, then I am hopeful that this should work

HI @LelecoLima,

 

Can you please share some sample data for test? I think it will be help for formula coding.

BTW, I'm not so sure if it is possible to nested use related function in rankx formula.
