Hi experts, I want to create a table visual that returns the selected top n table
here the sample data:
week | id | value | ||
w1 | E01 | 163 | ||
w1 | E01 | 145 | ||
w1 | E02 | 94 | ||
w1 | E02 | 35 | ||
w1 | E03 | 123 | ||
w1 | E04 | 8 | ||
w1 | E06 | 177 | ||
w1 | E07 | 38 | ||
w2 | E01 | 103 | ||
w2 | E02 | 180 | ||
w2 | E03 | 31 | ||
w2 | E04 | 57 | ||
w2 | E06 | 88 | ||
w2 | E07 | 179 | ||
w2 | E08 | 69 | ||
w3 | E02 | 177 | ||
w3 | E03 | 176 | ||
w3 | E04 | 62 | ||
w3 | E06 | 92 |
and the expecte result is rank of id based on amount of each week, and returns a table with week, id, sum of amount and top n of rank, notice that the rank is based on the slicer of the value, the slicer is another table with no relation with the data above:
topn
1
2
3
...
10,
for example, when topn slicer is 3, the expected table is:
week | id | sum | rank | |||
w1 | E01 | 300 | 2 | |||
w1 | E02 | 200 | 3 | |||
w1 | E06 | 700 | 1 | |||
w2 | E02 | 100 | 1 | |||
w2 | E06 | 20 | 3 | |||
w2 | E07 | 50 | 2 | |||
w3 | ||||||
… |
when topn slicer is 4, then the table is:
week | id | sum | rank | |||
w1 | E01 | 300 | 2 | |||
w1 | E02 | 200 | 3 | |||
w1 | E06 | 700 | 1 | |||
w1 | E07 | 166 | 4 | |||
w2 | E02 | 100 | 1 | |||
w2 | E06 | 20 | 3 | |||
w2 | E07 | 50 | 2 | |||
w2 | E01 | 10 | 4 | |||
w3 | ||||||

Hi, @BeaBF
I am in favor of your method. At the same time I would like to share another solution.
Hi, @Anonymous @oakfootballclub
I am glad to help you.
According to your description, you want to how to return dynamic result according to selected value?
If I understand you correctly, then you can refer to my solution.
1. Create a new table for handsome selection of top n.
2. New table, calculate the value grouped according to week and id.
Table2 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
SUMMARIZE (
Table_,
Table_[week],
Table_[id],
"TotalValue", SUM ( Table_[value] )
),
"TotalValueByWeekAndID", [TotalValue]
)
3. New Column, according to the value calculated in the first step of the descending order, to get the top three values.
RankWithinWeekAndID =
RANKX (
FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table2' ), 'Table2'[week] = EARLIER ( 'Table2'[week] ) ),
'Table2'[TotalValueByWeekAndID],
,
DESC,
DENSE
)
4.New Measure, and then use the Measure to filter the visual.
TopNFrequency =
VAR CurrentID =
SELECTEDVALUE ( Table2[id] )
Var Top_N = SELECTEDVALUE('Top_Number'[TopN])
RETURN
CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS (
FILTER ( Table2, Table2[RankWithinWeekAndID] <= Top_N && Table2[id] = CurrentID )
)
)
5.Change slicer to single selection:
6.Here is the result:
I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
Best Regards,
Fen Ling,

@Anonymous Hi! Here the measure for rank:
the selected value actually should be rank not week😁
@oakfootballclub @Anonymous the correct measure:
if you select 3, it returns:
The SELECTEDVALUE on week is used only to group by Week in the rank calc.
