How to rank only visible cells in Excel?

In general, all the cells including both filtered values and unfiltered values will be ranked by the Rank function. However, in some cases, you just want to rank only the filtered values which means to rank only visible cells in the sheet as below screenshot shown in Excel.

Rank only visible/filtered cells in Excel

To rank only visible cells, you can apply a formula.

Select a cell that you want to place the ranking result, type this formula =SUM(IF(SUBTOTAL(103,OFFSET($A$2:$A$8,ROW($A$2:$A$8)-ROW($A$2),0,1))>0,IF(A2<$A$2:$A$8,1)))+1, press Shift + Ctrl + Enter keys, then drag auto fill handle down to fill this formula to the cells.

In the formula, A2 are the first cell you want to rank, A2:A8 is the range you want to rank.

I can't count, obviously. The rank would be four in a group of four. Duh.

This seems to use only unique values for the ranking, ignoring values that are duplicated. In a group of four, if there are four values of 1 and we are ranking the value 2, using this formula the rank would be two, not five. Is that correct?

Hi, Alan Brown, for solving your problem, you need two formulas.
for example, G1:G7 is the column range you want to rank, in H1, type below formula:
=SUMPRODUCT((G1<G$1:G$7)/COUNTIF(G$1:G$7,G$1:G$7))+1
then drag auto fill handle down to H7
in next cell, I1, use below formula:
=RANK($H1,$H$1:$H$7)
press Enter key and drag auto fill handle down to I7, then the rank is finished.
Please let me know if it works, thanks.

The above Rank only visible cells tip is awesome, Thank you, but CHALLENGE... How do you add excluding zeros to the array formula. I can't seem to get the syntax right to do both Visible and Non-Zero, in one array formula.

You can use an IF function in a "helper" column to regard it as a very small value e.g. 1E-62 [i.e. enter this function in Column D >> Cell D2 =IF(A2=0,1E-62,A2)]
