    Hi Anonymous , rajendraongole1 Thank you for your prompt reply!


    Based on my testing, the Rank value will change based on the multislicer context.

     

    As a workaround, we can transform the data in Power Query, sort the TRD_COMMISSION_GBP columns in descending order, and then add index columns to make the sorting static:

     

    In this way, we can see the difference between the original rank column and the index column:

     

    Best regards,

Hi Anonymous - Can you try the below measure that the rank calculation includes all possible values of TRD_COUNTERPARTY. The ALLSELECTED function ensures that the sum of TRD_COMMISSION_GBP respects the currently selected slicers.

 

CommRank =
CALCULATE (
RANKX (
ALL ( 'DEXTR_EQ_Trades'[TRD_COUNTERPARTY] ),
CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'DEXTR_EQ_Trades'[TRD_COMMISSION_GBP] ) ),
,
DESC
),
ALLSELECTED ( 'DEXTR_EQ_Trades' )
)

Hi,

 

Im looking for the rank to stay the same and not change how it is calculated.. For example as the "GOLD" is in rank 3 before i select the slicer. When I select the slicer for just GOLD then I want the rank to still be 3, I dont want the rank calculation to be affected.
