Tiebreaker - SUMPRODUCT returning 0 Value

[programsam]

Hey gang,

I'm creating a very basic ranking system that essentially ranks two columns separately (Column A and Column B), then adds the value of the two columns together in Column C. I then rank Column C but am getting duplicate values where the totals are the same (no issues with this so far). In comes the tiebreaker which essentially looks at a column of percentages in Column D which would use the highest percentage in Column D to break a tie of the total in Column C is the same.

I've used SUMPRODUCT in the past with success but in using it now, it's returning a 0 on every value and as a result, I'm still getting duplicate values. What gives?

=RANK($G5,$G$5:$G$20)+SUMPRODUCT(J$5:J$20=J5)

Thoughts?

Hi

Try

=RANK($G5,$G$5:$G$20)+COUNTIF(J$5:J$20,J5)

PGC, thank you for the reply.

Unfortunately, this does not work either short of adding a 1 to every ranking. For whatever reason I cannot upload an image but the link below shows a screenshot of what I'm wanting to do.

Hi

Try

=RANK($G5,$G$5:$G$20)+COUNTIF(J$5:J$20,J5)

Hi

In D2:

=RANK(C2,$C$2:$C$7)+COUNTIF($C$2:C2,C2)-1
Copy down

This is what I get.
Is this what you need?

So it works, but what I need is for the percentage in column E to be the tiebreaker. If I read this formula right, C2 and C6 both equal 10 and the only reason C2 ranks higher than C6 is because it comes first. If the percentage in E6 were higher than E2, how could you ensure that the rankings would still come out correctly?

Hi

In D2:

=RANK(C2,$C$2:$C$7)+COUNTIF($C$2:C2,C2)-1
Copy down

This is what I get.
Is this what you need?

In that case use in D2:

=RANK(C2,$C$2:$C$7)+SUMPRODUCT(($C$2:$C$7=C2)*($E$2:$E$7>E2))

Thank you, that solution did not 100% work either to break the tie but I took what you provided and did a little more reading and (in case anyone else ever needs it) this is what I came up with that works for my situation. I think part of my problem was the need to sort in Ascending vs. Descending but I'm still not entirely sure.

=RANK(J5,$J$5:$J$20,1)+SUMPRODUCT(--($J$5:$J$20=J5)*($K$5:$K$20<K5))

In that case use in D2:

=RANK(C2,$C$2:$C$7)+SUMPRODUCT(($C$2:$C$7=C2)*($E$2:$E$7>E2))
