Hello,
I have a set of orders made by different departments and I am trying to rank them according to the sequence of orders (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ...) and the dates.
Here's a sample of the data
If I want to choose only departments A and B, I should get this
B, D, and E
etc.
I saw this post http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/DAX-Ranking-or-Indexing-Dates/m-p/41239#M15579 but couldn't get to the solution I want.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi,
You can create a numeric calculate column for Date.
Column = VALUE(YEAR(Department[Date]) & if(MONTH(Department[Date]) < 10, "0" & MONTH(Department[Date]), MONTH(Department[Date])) & if(DAY(Department[Date]) < 10, "0" & DAY(Department[Date]), DAY(Department[Date])))
Then create a Rank measure within each Department group.
Measure = RANKX(ALLEXCEPT(Department,Department[Department]),CALCULATE(sum(Department[Column])),,ASC, Dense) - 1
This is the result:

Thank you Alex.
Your solution functions perfeclty when I have distinct dates.
But when I have the same date for the same department, measure does not work as it should.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks again.
Hi,
If you have only 2 columns in Department table, I suggest you using following code to remove duplicated records in a new table.
Department2 = DISTINCT(Department)
Then create the same “Column” and “Measure” just as I wrote in my reply above for Department2.
Best Regards
Alex
Thank you Alex for your help.
The thing is they are not duplicated records. Only the department and the date are the same while other columns like quantity and description differ. So a department can make many orders during the same day, that's why I cannot remove any record.
I'm not sure if this is feasible...
Thanks.
