DAX Ranking events year over year - excel-formula

Question

I have a table of data that has a format similar to the following:
EventID | Event Date
--------------------
1 | 1/1/2014
2 | 2/8/2014
3 | 10/1/2014
4 | 2/5/2014
5 | 4/1/2014
6 | 9/1/2014
What I am trying to do is create a DAX formula to rank each event in the order that it happened for the year. So I want to end up with something like this. This way I can compare the events year over year as the events don't happen on any regular time schedule.
Event Date | Year | Rank
------------------------
1/1/2014 | 2014 | 1
2/8/2014 | 2014 | 2
10/1/2014 | 2014 | 3
2/5/2015 | 2015 | 1
4/1/2015 | 2015 | 2
9/1/2015 | 2015 | 3
I have tried to do this by creating a formula that will give me the day number of the year:
Day of Year =(YEARFRAC(CONCATENATE("Jan 1 ", YEAR([Event Date])),[Event Date])*360)+1
Then using rankX on this table, but I cant seem to get the proper result. Perhaps I am not understanding the use of rankX or going about this the right way.
=RANKX(FILTER(Event,EARLIER(Event[Event Year])=Event[Event Year]),Event[Day of Year])
or
=RANKX(All(Event[Event Year]),[Day of Year],,1,Dense)
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Thanks for any help in advance!

Answer 1

Create the following measures:
[Year]:=YEAR(LASTDATE(Event[Event Date]))
and
[Rank]:=RANKX(FILTER(ALL(Event),[Year]=YEAR(MAX(Event[Event Date]))),FIRSTDATE(Event[Event Date]),,1,DENSE)
and this is the result that you get:
Note: My dates are in UK format and I suspect yours were in US format, so the rankings do not appear to tally with your example, but it does work!
