Hi All,
My data is in a matrix (like below) and I would like the ranking on TYPE to be fixed 1) shoes 2) clothes 3) accessories 4) kitchen but when i expand the + sign, i would like the measure to rank by descending order. is this even possible? thanks alot for the valuable help 🙂
My dataset looks like this:
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
You will need to create another measure to calculate the value by type.
For example:
Measure = SUM('Table'[value])
Measure 2 = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[value]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[type]))
Then use ISFILTERED() function to get different rank.
Measure 3 =
var _unexpand = RANKX(ALLSELECTED('Table'),[Measure 2],,ASC,Dense)
var _expand = RANKX(ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[color]),[Measure],,DESC)
return
IF(ISFILTERED('Table'[color]),_expand,_unexpand)
Best Regards,
Jay

@Anonymous Function ISINSCOPE can help you. Measure should look like this:
measure=IF(ISINSCOPE([Colour]),_descRank,_ascRank)
Hi, sorry what is _descrank? is that also a measure?
It's your rank calculation.
