How to Rank in a column

[Anonymous]

Hi 

I have a column hirearchy, and a list of customer ID, Now customers can have only 1 unique ID associated with it, but the column has values like for example 

1. RLE 

2. Treatment 

3. Surgery

4. LRI 

and so on.. 

the column hirearchy is based on the fact that if a customer buys 2 RLE i need to count only 1, that was easy with distinctcount, and i managed to do it. BUT now it seems customer can buy and RLE, a TREATMENT and then SURGERY then I need to count 1 and that customer as an RLE Customer. 

if, suppose a customer gets an LRI and then a TREATMENT, then i need to count The customer as a TREATMENT customer.. in this list whatever comes on top, that instance should be counted.. DO ANYONE HAS ANY IDEA HOW I CAN APPROACH THIS ?? YOUR COMMENTS WILL BE VALUABLE

Hi @Anonymous ，

Not very clear, Why the output of OTHERS is 2, but the output of SBK is 1?

It makes it easier to give you a solution.

1. Sample (dummy dataset) data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

the grouping has to be done based on customer ID 

so if you look at others there are two customers who have others ( cid 1 and 4 )

there are 6 customers who has RLE as the minimum Hierarchy (2,3,5,6,7,9)

there is 1 customer who has sbk ( 8 )

To explain further

the hierarchy should be only counted once, ie for cid 1= count should be 1 and as others 
IF you look at cid 6, count should again be 1 but for RLE ..I hope you can understand this
