Hello everyone,

I am trying to rank my table records in order to standard deviation of a column. The following SS shows how is my generic approach is wrtitten to achieve the rankings and I did the same for median values for the same column and it worked without any problem. So, here is how my function looks like:

 



This returns me 1 as the rank of each record. However when I change STDEV.P to MEDIAN it works pretty well

For more clearance, I am adding indices devided by a big number to prevent having the same rank for same values. That's why you see a sum there.

So, could anyone help me out and explain what is the problem here or how to create a stable ranking function for my tables please?

Thanks in advance,

Cheers!
