    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Based your sample, you could have a try with the measure below.

     

    SumPointsRank = 
Var summry=SUMMARIZE(ALLSELECTED(Results),[Player],"Sum",SUM(Results[Points]))
var tmp=ADDCOLUMNS(summry,"RNK",RANKX(summry,[Sum],,DESC,Dense))
return
MAXX(FILTER(tmp,[Player]=SELECTEDVALUE(Results[Player])),[RNK])

    If you don't want to create a temp table, you also could use the measure2.

     

    Measure2=
    RANKX(ALLSELECTED(Results),CALCULATE(SUM(Results[Points]),ALLEXCEPT(Results,Results[Player])),,DESC,Dense)

    Here is the output result.

     

     

     

    More details, you could refer to the attachment.

     

    Best  Regards,

    Cherry

Hi Anonymous,

 

By my tests with your measure, I could get the output you desired.

 

 

If you still need help, please share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the issue and your desired output, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive or Dropbox and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.)

 

You also could have a reference of my attachment.

 

Best  Regards,

Cherry

Thanks for your response - I've had a look at your file and can't see any difference between yours and mine, yet my ranking isn't working. I also tried Greg's suggestion buy it didn't yield the required results.

 

Here's my file (containing dumy data):

 

Sample File

The visualisation is on the 3rd tab.

      Thansk Cherry - I made a minor tweak to include the Year-Month in the ALLEXCEPT function (as once the real data was included the output wasn't correct) - and it has worked. Thank you.

       

      Final measure:

       

      Measure2 = RANKX(ALLSELECTED(Results),CALCULATE(SUM(Results[Points]),ALLEXCEPT(Results,Results[Player],Results[Year-Month])),,DESC,Dense)

      Hi v-piga-msft 

       

      If I want to rank data for individuals each and every month in a visual how would I adjust your formula.  I tried:

       

      Rank TLeads Owner = RANKX(ALLSELECTED(Merged),CALCULATE(SUM(Merged[Count Leads]),ALLEXCEPT(Merged,Merged[Lead Owner],'Calendar'[Month Year])),,DESC,Dense)

      However I'm getting totally wrong results.

       

      Also, I have the visual filtered for only certain team members so I want the rankings for them alone

       

      Effectively I want to sore each month in a clustered column chart from highest to lowest based on the legend.

       

      Thanks, Sharon
