Incorrect result using Rankx for subcategories when adding new columns
Hi,
I am trying to rank by subcategory (product ID) in a table and it works fine using the following metric.
Rank = rankx(ALLSELECTED('Product'[Product ID]),calculate(sum('Sales'[Sale])))
But as soon as I add new columns such as Product Name, the ranking becomes 1 for all the rows. I need to add the extra columns (4-5 new columns that could be from different tables) to show more information in my visual but don't want them to affect the ranking.
Here is my table:
| Sales person | Product ID | Sales | Rank |
| A | 11A | 500 | 2 |
| A | 21B | 1000 | 1 |
| A | 31C | 1500 | 3 |
| B | 41D | 2000 | 2 |
| B | 51E | 2500 | 1 |
| C | 61F | 3000 | 4 |
| C | 71G | 3500 | 3 |
| C | 81F | 4000 | 2 |
| C | 9 | 4500 | 1 |
The sale value comes from Sales table which has a relationship with my product table using Product ID (there could be few rows per product ID, so I need to use sum([Sale]))
Thanks

Hi Pelahibdo ,
Please try this formula:
Rank = VAR SalesPersonGroup = FILTER( ALL('Table'), 'Table'[Sales Person] = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Sales Person]) ) RETURN RANKX( SalesPersonGroup, CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales])), , DESC, DENSE )I've made a test for your reference:
1\Mya data table(Table)
2\Add a measure
Rank = VAR SalesPersonGroup = FILTER( ALL('Table'), 'Table'[Sales Person] = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Sales Person]) ) RETURN RANKX( SalesPersonGroup, CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales])), , DESC, DENSE )3\Result
