    Hi vijayan_ja ,

     

    Please try this:

    Rank =
IF (
    [FlagLatest] = 1,
    RANKX (
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( RealTimeTest ),
            [FlagLatest] = 1
                && RealTimeTest[metric_name] = MAX ( RealTimeTest[metric_name] )
        ),
        [SumwithContext],
        ,
        DESC,
        DENSE
    )
)

    Best regards,

    Yuliana Gu

vijayan_ja in this article there is a section which talks about breaking ties, scroll down the page on article and you need similar approach to make it work in your model.

Breaking ties using date column dosen't works, because the date value is same acrros the table. and we used Rand() but no luck.

    vijayan_ja you have to break the ties somehow, why not add index column which will be unique for each record and then break ties based on that, it should be easy, no?

      As i mentioned, addind index column is not possible, due to the real time dataset.

        interesting, well i guess you have to somehow find a unique record, seems like that is the requirement to solve your problem. I'm surprise that random didn't worked.

        Maybe you can add a super insignificant amount to your sum? 
        Like:

        [SumwithContext] + (RAND()/1000)

        Then you rank on this measure while still displaying [SumwithContext]?
