Complicated ranking off of multiple variables formula

[broman5000]

Hey there,


I'm trying to create a ranking and quintile off of multiple criteria (consider these columns a, b, c, d, e)


Essentially I want to do the following


1. Create a ranking *(Column D) based off of the Usage value (column C) by item (Column B) against how each location (Column A) perform for that particular item (Column B)


2. I then would likely create a quintile ranking (Column E) of numbers (1,2,3,4,5) based of of those ranking values


The formula for this is way over my head and i'm not sure it's even possible! Help Please


obviously there is much more data than this, Its normally around 200K rows, this is just a snipit example that I would hopefully be able to drag the formula's down for

You can sort your data using custom sort based on any column and add a second and third column.

I was hoping to do this based off a formula in columns D and E...I've seen some use sumproduct or countif...but i've been unsuccessful

For example to show on the ranking

Please explain your ranking system

Why is e,3,.19 = 1 when d,1,.17 = 2 sorry I am not following
