    RANK = 
IF (
    [Age Profile Creation Months] = "0-3 Months",
    1,
    IF (
        [Age Profile Creation Months] = "3-6 Months",
        2,
        IF (
            [Age Profile Creation Months] = "6-9 Months",
            3,
            IF (
                [Age Profile Creation Months] = "9-12 Months",
                4,
                IF ( [Age Profile Creation Months] = "12+ Months", 5,BLANK() )
            )
        )
    )
)

    Return:

     

     

    Best Regards

    replace the "N/A" with 6. You can't return an integer and a string into the same column.

        that's still a string, you need to return the number 6 without the quotes
