Firstly, to calculate rank and max values in Power BI, it is important to understand what rank and max values are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rank of a value refers to its position relative to other values in a data set. For example, if you have a column of sales data, the rank of a specific sale would be its position relative to the other sales in the data set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The max value, on the other hand, refers to the highest value in a data set. The max value returns the highest value in a column it is calculated for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, I will explain how to calculate rank and max values in Power BI using DAX formulas in Power BI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calculating Rank Values<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To calculate the rank values, you can follow the following steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Load your data source<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Before you can calculate the rank and maximum values, you need to load your data source into Power BI. This could be a CSV file, a database, or any other data source that Power BI supports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create a new measure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The next thing to do is to create a new measure. A measure is a calculation that you create based on the data in your data source.<\/em> To create a new measure, go to the Modeling tab<\/strong> in Power BI Desktop and click on New Measure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Calculate the rank value<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the dialog box, you can use the RANKX function to calculate the rank value. The syntax for using the RANKX function in Power BI is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RANKX(table, expression, [value], [order])<\/strong><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
