Distinct values for a Ranking measure

Hi All,

I am trying to get a calculated measure for rank. When I use SKIP and DENSE, I do not get what I expect.

My data has the following fields, Network, Provider ID, State, MSA, County and Zip. I need to get a rank measure of the network by Provider Count when filtered by State, MSA, County and Zip. It is a very simple requirement, but I couldn't find this any of the forums.

Please help. Thank you in advance for your time and help.

I found a solution from youtube - alphabetical rank calculation. 

Create a measure such as this -

Alphabetic Rank =

VAR _curNetwork = SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Network])

VAR res = COUNTROWS( FILTER( ALL(Table[Network]), Table[Network] <= _curNetwork ) )

RETURN res  

 

The next rank measure calculation is - 

RANK_ALL = RANKX( ALL(Table[Network]), [Provider Count] + DIVIDE([Alphabetic Rank],100), ,DESC ) 

 

This works very well - I am able to filter by State, MSA, Region, County and Zip just by using this one calculation. 

Thank you 🙂

Hi @sthomas38 

You can refer to the following example.

Create a new measure

Measure = RANKX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[State]=MAX([State])),CALCULATE(SUM([PROVIDER COUNT])),,ASC,Dense)

Output

Hi, thank you for responding. So I will have to create one measure for each filter, right? (Example this will only filter ranks by state). Similarly, I will have to create another measure for MSA, County, Region and Zip? Also the visual cannot have ONE field, multiple calculated rank fields.

you can use child column i.e NETWORK to get proper ranks

I am sorry, I don't know what that means..?
