Returning the Highest Rank Number from the Rank Measure

Hi There,

 

I have a list of customers that is fluid, and there is a RankX ranking them based on their revenue. Lets say that there are 1 through n customers, I want to take n and multiply it by .2 and then only display customers with rank <= n*0.2. In other words I want to only display the top 20% of my customers based on revenue. What is the best way to do this?

@cbolling ,Not very clear. But I think this case of top percentile.

MxRankN :=

    INT ( pct * MxRx )
RETURN
    SUMX (
