    Ah, ok, my bad. It's evaluating the rank first, then filtering afterwards.

    You'll need to apply the filter prior to each rank evaluation, something like this:

    VAR _topItem =
    RANKX(
        //Filter table rank is evaluated over
        FILTER( ALL( Part_Sales[Item] ), [Total Sales] >= 0 ),
        [Total Sales],
        ,
        DESC
    )

     

    Check whether this one works as required and, if it does, you'll need to apply a similar filter to each evaluation table in your rank variables.

Hi Chris_68 ,

 

Can't download the test file as blocked by org. Can you copy/paste your measure code into a code window ( </> button) here please?
