Hi,
I should create a ranknumber but can not find how. I have a list of vessels with their departure date and departure time.
Sometimes multiple vessels are leaving the same day. For that day I would like to give them a ranknumber in the order they left.
So the first that day, the second, ...; I should become the table as shown below. Unfortunatly could not find the right manner or DAX code to do so. Thanks to anybody who could help me out!
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can use this calculated column
RANK Column =
RANKX (
FILTER ( Table1, [Departure Date] = EARLIER ( [Departure Date] ) ),
[Departure Time],
,
ASC,
DENSE
)
It works when i use some sample rows like your data
Could your Departure Date (for each day) be different due to time element
If it it is use this MEASURE
RANK =
RANKX (
FILTER (
Table1,
DATEVALUE ( [Deaprture Date] ) = DATEVALUE ( EARLIER ( [Deaprture Date] ) )
),
[Departure Time],
,
ASC,
DENSE
)

Thanks, but unfortunately the output is only 1.

Thanks a lot Zubair! Indeed, I send you this example but am acually working on another file (confidential info). There it didn't work, but it the example it does. So yes must be something with the date value! Thanks a lot!
