I have a collection of data where the lower the value, the better. When I use Quartile/Percentile, it shows higher values as having a higher rank. Any way to reverse the order, without changing the underlying data (ie. multiply all values by -1)?

Also, I have a graph of the data showing the 1st, 2nd (median) and 3rd quartile and then a particular data set (in this case, company results) over a number of years. Any way to automatically add the Percentrank as a data label for the specific company results? For example, the value 200 puts this company at the 65th percentile. I want the data label to show 65, not 200.
