I've been trying create a unique ID using a measure based on a category to allow filtration. For example I've the following table, and I would like to create a measure that for each "location" I would had a diferent ID (1,2,3,..)
Tablename: sensors
ID | Instalation ID | Sensor | ConfigFile | Location | ||||
1 | 1 | Pressure | sensorF1.txt | room1 | ||||
2 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF2.txt | room1 | ||||
3 | 1 | Pressure | sensorF3.txt | house | ||||
4 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF4.txt | house | ||||
5 | 1 | Humidity | sensorF5.txt | room2 | ||||
6 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF6.txt | room2 | ||||
7 | 1 | Humidity | sensorF7.txt | outside | ||||
8 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF8.txt | outside | ||||
1 | 2 | Pressure | sensorF1.txt | room1 | ||||
2 | 2 | Temperature | sensorF2.txt | room1 | ||||
3 | 2 | Pressure | sensorF3.txt | house | ||||
4 | 2 | Temperature | sensorF4.txt | house | ||||
5 | 2 | Humidity | sensorF5.txt | room2 | ||||
6 | 2 | Temperature | sensorF6.txt | room2 | ||||
7 | 2 | Humidity | sensorF7.txt | outside | ||||
8 | 2 | Temperature | sensorF8.txt | outside |
The output would be:
ID | Instalation ID | Sensor | ConfigFile | Location | UniqueID | |||||
1 | 1 | Pressure | sensorF1.txt | room1 | 1 | |||||
2 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF2.txt | room1 | 1 | |||||
3 | 1 | Pressure | sensorF3.txt | house | 2 | |||||
4 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF4.txt | house | 2 | |||||
5 | 1 | Humidity | sensorF5.txt | room2 | 3 | |||||
6 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF6.txt | room2 | 3 | |||||
7 | 1 | Humidity | sensorF7.txt | outside | 4 | |||||
8 | 1 | Temperature | sensorF8.txt | outside | 4 |
I've tried to use the measure bellow. but, the EARLIER does not work in the measure.
Do anyone has any ideia how could I do something like that?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@amelo you can achieve that with following two measures
_maxID = MAX(t1[Location])
_rank = RANKX(ALL(t1),[_maxID],,ASC,Dense)
and if you want the ranking to be partitioned by Installion ID
Measure = RANKX(FILTER(ALL(t1),t1[Instalation ID]=MAX(t1[Instalation ID])),CALCULATE(MAX(t1[Location])),,ASC,Dense)

Thank you!! Works like a charm!!!
Well it is neet trick!
@amelo do you want a unique id between each Installation Id? The output you showed is only for Installation ID, not showing both the IDs, the solution depends on how you want it with different installation ids.

Oh thats because I'm filtering to produce a report for instalation. So, only one instalation will be tested at each time.
