How to rank the date in Excel without duplicates

Question

Good Morning.

I have a question about ranking date in excel, please see the image below, in the rank column,

I used formula:

=RANK($A3,$A:$         


        

Answer 1

Try to enter this and press Shift + Ctrl + Enter altogether:

=SUM(IF(A3>$A$3:$A$8,1/COUNTIF($A$3:$A$8,$A$3:$A$8)))+1

Then drag down the formula to see the results.

Or second way (Doesn't need Shift + Ctrl + Enter):

=SUMPRODUCT((A3>A$3:A$8)/COUNTIF(A$3:A$8,A$3:A$8))+1
