Filter Top N% Column Values by Other Column Values

Anonymous — Tue, 21 Dec 2021 14:26:47 GMT

I am migrating one report from Excel to Power BI. So, in Power BI I need to implement the same Excel Filter shown in attached screenshot. Basically the logic needs to be like, the Values in Column C are to be summarized by Values in Column A and then the Values in Column B need to be filtered(Only Top 60% Values) by summarized Values of Column C.

NOTE: Column B has multiple Sub-Values for Each Value in Column A as you can see a (+) sign before each value in Column A

Can someone help with the DAX Logic that need to be followed in order to achieve this functionality.

You can use the above table as sample data, for convenience I have kept the column header of this table same as those shown in the attached screenshot(in above post).

Regarding Desired Output, I need the data representation to be same as that shown in the attached screenshot(in above post).

Basically the logic needs to be like, the Values in Column C are to be summarized by Values in Column A and then the Values in Column B need to be filtered(Only Top 60% Values) by summarized Values of Column C

- Just so I understand, Order Value USD BR needs to be summarized by Local Product Group Unit

which is the following

and then the Values in Column B need to be filtered(Only Top 60% Values) by summarized Values of Column C - so does it mean that DAX needs to return the top 60% (Order Value USD BR/sum of Order Value USD BR by Local Product Group Unit)

If I follow the above, for the given dataset, DAX only needs to return this row only as everything else is <=60%

Please confirm

Once SUM of Order Value USD BR is done by Distinct Local Product Group Unit, We need to Filter Out All those "Suppliers" from Supplier column which covered Top 60% portion of SUM of Order Value USD BR by Distinct Local Product Group Unit

Anonymous so what is the desired output for the given dataset?

A table as that shown in the attached screenshot should be implemented as Power BI table(or Matrix) visual. Basically, implementing the filter as shown in the attached screenshot and applying it to table(or Matrix) visual.

I don't think PBI has anything which utilizes % as TOPN

What you want can be returned through a DAX table function but can this be done with a measure. looping AlexisOlson and parry2k attached a pbix for your refrerence

DAX Table function that returns the derived table, but offcourse that is not desired. The foloowing DAX query returns if a the same PIVOT table was filtered in excel

Measure = VAR _1 = ADDCOLUMNS ( 'Table 1', "_pct", [pct] ) VAR _2 = ADDCOLUMNS ( _1, "rank", RANKX ( FILTER ( _1, 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] ) ), [_pct], , DESC ) ) VAR _3 = ADDCOLUMNS ( _2, "runningPct", SUMX ( FILTER ( _2, 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] ) && [rank] <= EARLIER ( [rank] ) ), [_pct] ) ) VAR _4 = ADDCOLUMNS ( ADDCOLUMNS ( _3, "is60", IF ( [runningPct] >= 0.6, 0, [runningPct] ) ), "is60_2", IF ( [runningPct] >= 0.6, [runningPct], 0 ) ) VAR _5 = ADDCOLUMNS ( _4, "rank2", IF ( [is60] = 0, RANKX ( FILTER ( _4, 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] = EARLIER ( 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit] ) ), [is60_2], , asc, DENSE ) ) ) VAR _6 = FILTER ( _5, [is60] <> 0 ) VAR _7 = FILTER ( _5, [rank2] = 2 ) VAR _8 = NATURALINNERJOIN ( 'Table 1', SUMMARIZE ( UNION ( _6, _7 ), [Local Product Group Unit], [Supplier] ) ) RETURN _8

Anonymous Given the data, is this the expected output

Re: Filter Top N% Column Values by Other Column Values

AlexisOlson — Tue, 21 Dec 2021 20:37:31 GMT

Can we use a measure as a visual level filter?

Where

runningPct = VAR GroupSummary = ADDCOLUMNS ( CALCULATETABLE ( SUMMARIZE ( 'Table 1', 'Table 1'[Local Product Group Unit], 'Table 1'[Supplier] ), REMOVEFILTERS ( 'Table 1'[Supplier] ) ), "@pct", [pct] ) VAR CurrPct = [pct] RETURN SUMX ( FILTER ( GroupSummary, [@pct] >= CurrPct ), [@pct] )

Thanks parry2k AlexisOlson for the quick response. parry2k will study it and might get back to you with any follow uo question I might have.

Anonymous guess you are sorted now.

parry2k Thanks a lot, I'll apply the same dax logic and will let you know about the results that I will get with the actual data.

parry2k I think we are close to achieving the required functionality. Thanks Again.

Is it also possible to have a measure column in the same matrix visual which can show the Sum of Number of Corresponding Filtered Suppliers (Using Number Supplier Orders column from Table). Please refer attached screenshot.

parry2k The calcuation measures that you provided are correct. My current requirement is as you can see in the attached picture i.e. whatsoever Suppliers get filtered as Top N%(Ex: Top 60%), I can get a sum of their count in a new column as shown in the attached picture and this Sum of their count must come from Number Supplier Orders column of Table1 as for each distinct Supplier in the Supplier Column there is a value "1" in Number Supplier Orders column of Table1(Please Refer Table1 data)
