Quintile a Measure

Good Evening 

 

Thank you for your time. 

I currenty have a table built in power BI and i have ranked 3 areas of sales performance. At the end of the table i have created a total score then ranked the total (If that nakes sense)

 

Now i am struggling to create a quintile measure, please help 🙂

 

The Rank and Rank Desc are all measures

Hi @Anonymous ,

You could use the following measure:

Measure = 
VAR _table =
    SUMMARIZE ( ALL (table1), Table1[His_UserfullName], "_Rank",  MAX(table1[rank desc]))

VAR Percentile25 =
    PERCENTILEX.EXC ( _table, [_Rank], 0.25 )
VAR Percentile50 =
    PERCENTILEX.EXC ( _table, [_Rank], 0.5 )
VAR Percentile75 =
    PERCENTILEX.EXC ( _table, [_Rank], 0.75 )
RETURN
     IF (
        MAX(table1[rank desc])< Percentile25,
        "Q1",
        IF ( MAX(table1[rank desc])< Percentile50, "Q2", IF ( MAX(table1[rank desc])< Percentile75, "Q3", "Q4" ) )
    )

 

Then you will get the below:

Wish it is helpful for you!
