Top Customers using RANKX and SUMX

[psiripun]

Hi all, I'm trying to understand why my formula isn't working the way I expect it to... I'm still fairly new to DAX so any help would be greatly appreciated! 

I'm trying to rank the customers according to their sales value.. but as you can see, the ranking isn't giving me the correct result. 

Rank_Customer = RANKX(ALL(Customer[CustomerName]), SUMX(RELATEDTABLE('DataTable'), DataTable[Sales_YTD]))

Sales_YTD = TOTALYTD([Total_Sales], Period[Date])

Total_Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(DataTable[Value]), FILTER(DataTable, DataTable[Type]="SALES"))

Could someone help point out what I'm doing wrong please? Thank you!

@psiripun , Can not say without looking at data. Please try like

Rank_Customer = RANKX(ALL(Customer[CustomerName]), [Sales_YTD ],,desc,dense)

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

@psiripun I think this is what you need

Rank_Customer = RANKX(ALL(Customer[CustomerName]), [Sales_YTD]),,DESC, DENSE ) 

change Ascending/Descending based on your need.
