Rankx display

Hi

I have table 1 is power BI. I wanna create a matrix like table 2 with below logic:

- Rank by PL & Route: Ranking the Amt by PL Cat & Route

- Rank by Item: Ranking the Amt by Item only 

So, How to make a measure to do it?

@ngocnguyen , Try ranks like

ranxk(allselected(Table[Item]), calculate(sum(Table[Amount]), allexcept(Table, Table[Item])),,desc,dense)

 

ranxk(Summarize(allselected(Table),Table[PL cat],Table[item] ), calculate(sum(Table[Amount]), allexcept(Table, Table[PL cat], Table[item])),,desc,dense)

Hi @ngocnguyen ,

According to your description, here's my solution. Create calculated columns.

Rank by PL&Route =
RANKX (
    'Table 1',
    SUMX (
        FILTER (
            ALL ( 'Table 1' ),
            'Table 1'[PL Cat] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[PL Cat] )
                && 'Table 1'[Route] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[Route] )
        ),
        'Table 1'[Amt]
    ),
    ,
    DESC,
    DENSE
)

For the second "Rank by Item", your requirement is Ranking the Amt by Item only, but the result in Table2 is not ranking by item. So I provide two formula here.

If you really want to rank by Item:

Rank by Item =
RANKX ( 'Table 1', 'Table 1'[Item],, ASC )

If you want to get the provided result:

Column =
RANKX (
    FILTER (
        'Table 1',
        'Table 1'[Route] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[Route] )
            && 'Table 1'[PL Cat] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[PL Cat] )
    ),
    'Table 1'[Amt]
)

Result:
