Hi community,
I have a team members dataset about users that are part of a particular team and the created at of the user is given as a datetime column.
I am trying to make a custom column in DAX to give a rank to the users based on their "user_created_at" datetime in order to get an overview as to which user is the n-th person in that team.
The dataset looks like:
team_id | user_id | user_created_at |
1 | a | 28 sept 2022 11:30 |
1 | b | 28 sept 2022 10:00 |
1 | c | 28 sept 2022 12:00 |
2 | d | 28 sept 2022 11:00 |
2 | e | 28 sept 2022 10:00 |
I want the following outcome:
team_id | user_id | user_created_at | rank |
1 | a | 28 sept 2022 11:30 | 2 |
1 | b | 28 sept 2022 10:00 | 1 |
1 | c | 28 sept 2022 12:00 | 3 |
2 | d | 28 sept 2022 11:00 | 2 |
2 | e | 28 sept 2022 10:00 | 1 |
I think that I have to use RANKX() in order to obtain the answer I want. I believe that this is not a difficult question, but I couldn't figure it out DAX-wise. If anyone could maybe provide the proper DAX code would be amazing.
Thank you for your time!

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension! |
DAX is simple, but NOT EASY! |
