What is the Rank Field?

The Rank Field allows you to determine the relative position of your numeric field. That's like a unique identifier of the position of each number in a numeric field(such as the number field, money field, or formula field ).

For Instance, in a school setting, this field type can be used to determine the position of students in a class

💡 Note: Using the rank field type requires you to connect to a Number field  before it can work.

How to create a Rank Field on a Board

Before you create a Rank field on your board, you need to add a number field type. You can check the help tutorial on how to create a number field type to do that.

To create a Rank field:

1. Click on the '+' sign to the right of the last field header (table view).

2. This pops up a form page, tap on the Field type, and select the rank from the dropdown list.

3. Then add field names and descriptions into their respective fields.

4. Add a corresponding Number Field type to the barcode.

5. Click on Create

How it Works


The rank automatically generates the position of each numeric value in the Number field you selected.
