Introduction to Management course
Top X values from column per day
Hi all,
Hoping you might be able to help here. Seems relatively simple, but struggling to get the desired result.
I have the below table and what I'd like to produce is a chart showing the sum of the top 2 classes per day. The top 2 on any day could be between any class.
So the first would be 10/06/2018; 18,391(a+b), 11/06/2018; 16,317 (a+c) and so on.
For some reason using a Top N visual filter won't work.
Thanks in advance
Andy

RE: Top X values from column per day
Hi Andy,
Thank you for the forum question.
No it is not a simple thing you want.
When you filter it using topn filter Power BI will just find the two classes with highest amount and display the same two classes each day. If you want both to filter topn 2 and on days you need to write DAX.
I found the solution. Please have a look at the link below.

Please let me know if it does not make sense.
Kind regards

Power BI tip:Create Interactive DashboardsBuild interactive dashboards by leveraging features like slicers, drill-through, and bookmarks. Slicers allow users to filter data dynamically, while drill-through enables detailed exploration of specific data points. Bookmarks help you save the current view, making it easy to switch between different states of your report. |
