    Hi stblonde,

    I tried your first solution, but it showed up an Error (The column "date" cannot be found) :smileysad:

    You shouldn't leave the VAR Function (DAX) in your formula. The formula below is for your reference.:smileyhappy:

    Rank =
VAR d = Tableau1[Date]
VAR c = Tableau1[Campaign ID]
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        RANK.EQ ( d, Tableau1[Date], ASC ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( Tableau1 ), Tableau1[Campaign ID] = c )
    )

    And the formula above should also meet your requirements:

     

     

    Here is the sample pbix file for your reference.

Hi v-ljerr-msft, 

 

Thank you ! It works pretty well on Power BI Desktop.

 

 

But I have another request how can it work directly within Excel Power Pivot interface ? Because the Var function doesn't seem to work outside of Power BI Desktop interface.

 

Thank a lot,

Steve

    Hi stblonde,

     

    As I am not very familiar with Excel Power Pivot, I would suggest you also go to the Power Pivot Forum for better assistance on this issue. :smileyhappy:
