Confused.
Here is my simple as data set.
Table name = complaints
Columns: Tier2, Cases
I just want to be able to filter the table by top5 cases by Tier2 category.
Any solutions?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
FilteredTable = TOPN( 5, complaints, complaints[cases], DESC )
Hi @johnmelbourne
You can use Rank as a measure like below.
Rank Cases by Tier2= RANKX( CALCULATETABLE( VALUES( complaints[Tier2] ), ALLSELECTED() ), CALCULATE( SUM( complaints[Cases] ) ),, DESC )
Or Column
Rank Cases by Tier2 = RANKX( VALUES( complaints[Tier2] ), CALCULATE( SUM( complaints[Cases] ) ),,, Dense )

Hi @Mariusz
I thought the TOPN to filter the table would be easy, but I am still struggling.
Here is my visualisation table using your rankx formula (which works great!). How would I use a TopN to reduce this table to say a top 5, or even better, a dynamic N using a variable? / slider?
Thanks
John
Hi @johnmelbourne
Please see the below.
Top N Sales = VAR n = MAX( 'Top N Selection'[Select Top N] ) -- Unrelated Table with one column and values for top n selection, example (1, 5, 10, 15) VAR tbl = TOPN( n, ALLSELECTED( 'Product'[Brand] ), -- replace with complaints[Tier2] [Sales], --replace with CALCULATE( SUM( complaints[Cases] ) ) DESC ) RETURN CALCULATE( [Sales], --replace with SUM( complaints[Cases] ) KEEPFILTERS( tbl ) )

Thank you @Mariusz for the additional procedure. Love to learn. Your solutions were perfect. My TOPN approach kept on throwing an error saying multiple columns. Then you provioded your solution and I also read this article which explained why TOPN is useless by itself. https://www.dutchdatadude.com/power-bi-pro-tip-confusion-about-topn-versus-rankx/
Your contribution was perfect. Thanks @Mariusz
FilteredTable = TOPN( 5, complaints, complaints[cases], DESC )
This article helped, in that TOPN is useless by itself.
