Slicer to affect "topN + other"

[PeterStuhr]

Hi all,

I have a Products table and a Sales table, which is related based on productID.

I want to do a "Top 10 + Others", based on sales. BUT I need to be able to make the slicer affect it, as we need to see it per company in our sales table.

How I did it:

Made a calculated column in the Products table to rank, based on sales:

Sales TopN+Others =

VAR RankbySales = RANKX(ALL(Products); [Sales];;DESC)

return

IF(RankbySales <=10;Products[Product];"Others")

This does in fact rank the top 10 products in a new table. But if I slice on company, it doesnt affect the ranking. So it is not dynamic based on slicer filters.

Can that be achieved?

Hi @PeterStuhr ,

How about the result after you follow the suggestions mentioned in my original post?Could you please provide more details about it If it doesn't meet your requirement?

Hi @PeterStuhr ,

The measure is dynamic but the calculated columns are computed during the database processing and then stored in the model. So In your scenario, we cannot make the calculated column dynamically by slicer.

We can try to create a measure in table visual meet your requirement:

Sales TopN+Others =
VAR RankbySales =
    RANKX ( ALLSELECTED ( Products ); [Sales];; DESC )
RETURN
    IF ( RankbySales <= 10; RankbySales; "Others" )

Best regards,
