Duplicate ranking
Hi,
What's the best way to avoid duplicate rankings for total spend with the measure below?
Rank =
VAR selectedMetric =
SELECTEDVALUE ( Slicer[Value] )
VAR rankSales =
RANKX (
ALLSELECTED ( table1[field1], table1[field2], table1[field3] ),
[Total Spend],
,
DESC
)
Hello lherbert501
Try this DAX
If you have a unique field (like CustomerID, StoreID, etc.), include it in the expression:
Rank =
VAR selectedMetric =
SELECTEDVALUE(Slicer[Value])
RETURN
RANKX(
ALLSELECTED(table1[field1], table1[field2], table1[field3]),
[Total Spend] * 1000000 + table1[UniqueID], // tie-breaker
,
DESC
)

another alternative is to add a small, insignificant random number to the values before you try the ranking.

Hi lbendlin ,
How would this be done? Its just a simple count of records but the number being ranked is single digit
Thanks

Hi,
In the orderby argument of the RANK() function, use the ORDERBY() function and in there you can specify as many columns as you want to order by (it can include a combination of measures and columns). To receive specific help, share some data to work with. Share data in a format that can be pasted in an MS Excel file.
