Is there a way to rank multiple columns in power query?


I am setting up a query where I need to rank multiple columns. I was able to sort the first column in descending order and inserted an index column. However, I am not able to rank the other columns.

I have included an example below: Table to show agent performance

Agent  | surveys | rank  | outcalls |total calls |outcalls/total calls |rank
Dallas |  80%    |   1   |    50    |  80        |      62.5%          | ?
May    |  75%    |   2   |    90    |  100       |      90.0%          | ?
Summer |  60%    |   3   |    60    |  75        |      80.0%          | ?

So basically from the example above, I was able to add an index column that ranked the surveys. How can I rank the outcalls/total calls column while still maintaining the rank in the other columns?


Solution

  • In this case, a simple approach would be to sort on outcalls/total calls, add another index column, and then sort the first rank column if you want to revert back to your starting order.
