I have a dataset in which I need to find the 5 most recent prices and display them in a table in Power BI. Here is a sample:
Item | Date | Price |
Car | 1/1/2020 | 1 |
Car | 1/2/2020 | 4.5 |
Car | 1/3/2020 | 5 |
Car | 1/4/2020 | 3.5 |
Car | 1/5/2020 | 4 |
Car | 1/6/2020 | 6 |
I would like to show 4.5, 5, 3.5, 4, and 6 in a table because those prices correspond to the 5 most recent dates. This will, of course, apply to multiple items, but this is a sampling.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Is this problem solved?
If it is solved, please always accept the replies making sense as solution to your question so that people who may have the same question can get the solution directly.
If not, please let me know.

@camargos88, this solved it! Thank you very much. I was able to add my fields to a Matrix and, with a few adjustments, create the desired result.
@Anonymous use TOPN function, read this post.
I would ❤ Kudos if my solution helped. 👉 If you can spend time posting the question, you can also make efforts to give Kudos whoever helped to solve your problem. It is a token of appreciation!

If my solution proved useful, I'd be delighted to receive Kudos. When you put effort into asking a question, it's equally thoughtful to acknowledge and give Kudos to the individual who helped you solve the problem. It's a small gesture that shows appreciation and encouragement! ❤

@parry2k , thank you for the link. I have heard of both the RANK and TOPN functions, but I am unsure how to apply them in this scenario. They have always given me a bit of trouble.
@Anonymous that post clearly defined the steps, and I think you should be able to follow thru it.

@parry2k , I do appreciate the steps you sent and love Russo's work, but a post like this from an advanced DAX guru is only clear if (1) your use-case matches his closely (e.g., a Sum of values similar to sales), or (2) you have an inkling about how ISINSCOPE, CALCULATETABLE, ALLSELECTED, and the RANKX functions are operating in the formulae provided and also have a dataset that is aligned with this scenario.
I do not have either and have been unable to implement the steps listed. For one thing, it is quite hard if one does not know what to use in his own dataset to replace the fields in the DAX formulas.
