Ranking card

zuchu

Hello,

I'm comparing companies that my company is doing business with. I'll be using sales as as the comperative metrics and those cards will be distributed on monthly basis to the companies. My question is: is it possible to create a card based on the sales but it will be displayed as ranking? (info is sensitive and don't want to show it to the companies), so that the company with most sales will be marked as number 1, second biggest sales with 2 etc.) Is it possible to do within Domo and if so, how??

@zuchu You would use RANK() or DENSE_RANK() in a beastmode on your card. It would be something like this:

RANK()OVER(ORDER BY SUM('Sales') DESC)

Then put your companies as a column and your beast mode as a column. Here's and article about the difference between RANK() and DENSE_RANK():

If you end up with ties and you don't want any, you can a second aggregation after SUM('Sales') that would be used as a tie breaker.
