TopN
Hi,
I'm trying to find the top5 of a list of prospects. I have managed to use Rank x to get the top five prospects to show, byt they're not in the correct order. My current measure is
Top5Prospects = Calculate([Projections],filter(VALUES(Prospects[Name]),if(rankx(all(Prospects[Name]),[Projections],,DESC)<=5,[Projections],blank())))
We covered this in training using TopN but I can't quite remember!

RE: TopN
Hi Lou,
Thank you for the forum question.
When you write that you do not get them in the right order, do you mean that in a visual, you do not get them in descending order. If this is the case you just need to sort the visual descending.
We used the Topn function on the course.
May be try something like
Top5Prospects = Calculate([Projections],Topn(5,all(Prospects[Name]),[Projections],DESC))
Kind regards
