    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Please create measures like this.

    Measure = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sales[Sale 2014]),
    FILTER(
        ALL(Sales),
        Sales[Month] = MAX(Sales[Month]) && Sales[CountryRegion] = MAX(Sales[CountryRegion])
    )
)
    Measure 2 = 
VAR x =  
RANKX(
    FILTER( ALLSELECTED(Sales), Sales[Month] = MAX(Sales[Month]) ),
    [Measure],
    , ASC, Dense
)
VAR y =  
RANKX(
    FILTER( ALLSELECTED(Sales), Sales[CountryRegion] = MAX(Sales[CountryRegion]) ),
    [Measure],
    , ASC, Dense
)
RETURN
IF(
    HASONEFILTER(Sales[CountryRegion]),
    x, y
)

    HI Anonymous ,

     

    Try measure like

     

    Measure = IF ([Total] <> BLANK() , RANKX ......  ))

     

    Also, if you can share sample data.

     

    For Ranks pls refer these articles

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You can try to use the below measure to do the rank:

     

    Measure = RANKX(filter(all(month),your_rank_measure > 0),your_rank_measure,,desc)

     

    Please try.

     

    If it's not what you want, please show some sample data and your data model.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Like this?

    Measure = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sales[Sale 2014]),
    FILTER(
        ALL(Sales),
        Sales[Month] = MAX(Sales[Month])&& Sales[CountryRegion] = MAX(Sales[CountryRegion])
    )
)
    Measure 2 = 
RANKX(
    FILTER( ALLSELECTED(Sales), Sales[CountryRegion] = MAX(Sales[CountryRegion]) ),
    [Measure],
    , ASC, Dense
)

    Or like this?

    Measure 3 = 
CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sales[Sale 2014]),
    FILTER(
        ALL(Sales),
        Sales[Month] = MAX(Sales[Month])
    )
)
    Measure 4 = 
RANKX(
    FILTER( ALLSELECTED(Sales),Sales[CountryRegion] = MAX(Sales[CountryRegion]) ),
    [Measure 3],
    , ASC, Dense
)

      v-lionel-msft thank you for this, so the way i am looking to do it, is if you added your country to sit below the month on the left of matrix, you would have your ranking by month but whne you open up the month it then will give you the ranking for the countries in that month so based on the 4 countries it would rank them 1 to 4 then if i was to drill into the the country i could then get more infornation etc
