Helper VCalculating Top N across columns
Helper VHello Anonymous ,
Here is a dummy of what the table structure looks like (removing proprietary info)
| Project Name | Status | Close Reason | Micro Stage Gate | Date Created | Closure Date | Variance | Column1 | Column2 | Column3 | Column4 | Column5 | Column6 | Column7 | Column8 | Column9 | Column10 |
| Project 1 | Open | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | |||||||||
| project 2 | In progress | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | |||||||||||
| Project 3 | Closed | 6/30/2019 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | |||||||||
| Project 4 | Open | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | |||||||||||
Hi Clint,
What I understood after looking at your dummy data is that, you want the summation of all the count in each column for all your projects and identify the highest summation for each of these columns.
Correct me if I am wrong.
if What i undersood is correct, then can you show the table somethign like this??
This is because Power BI support doesn't support multiple Top N in Visual level filters.
May be you need a Calculated column.
you can refer this post :

Thanks Anonymous , I just created a couple of tables in excel to pull the data together in the way I needed it to do the Top N. The datamodel of the source just needs to be restructured I think to give us more flexibility in working with it.
