kaye123 , Usually if number are sortable we can create rank and use that, In a separate table is best

 

example

new column in a separate week table

Week Rank RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format

 

measure example

 

Last 8 weeks = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]>=max('Date'[Week Rank])-8 && 'Date'[Week Rank]<=max('Date'[Week Rank])))

    Thanks for this. I was able to create a table with showing specific rankings thanks for that. Now, I need this table to be flexible, in which ranking will depend on what i chose in the slicers or page filters. 

    I created a measure like this below. but getting error on the scalar value issue. 

    Top4Quarters =
    Var tbl = SUMMARIZE(FiscalCalendar,FiscalCalendar[FiscalQuarter])
    Var RNK_tbl = ADDCOLUMNS(tbl,"Rank",RANKX(tbl,[FiscalQuarter],[FiscalQuarter],DESC,Dense))
    Return
        CALCULATE(RNK_tbl, FILTER(RNK_tbl,[Rank]>5))
     

     

    I plan to use this as my x-axis on the sparklines. only showing last 4 quarters or last 13 weeks. depending on what year i choose from the slicer.
