    Hi manish2k

     

    Try creating a calculated table that summarises the data using this code

     

    Summary Table = SUMMARIZE(
                        'Table1',
                        Table1[Supplier Name],
                        'Table1'[Category] ,
                        "Total Spend",SUM('Table1'[Spend]) 
                    ) 

    Then add the following calculated column to this newly created table

     

    Supplier Category Rank = 
    	CALCULATE(
    		COUNTROWS('Summary Table'),
    		FILTER('Summary Table',
    			'Summary Table'[Category] = EARLIER('Summary Table'[Category]) 
    			&& 'Summary Table'[Total Spend] >= EARLIER('Summary Table'[Total Spend]
    				)
    				)
    				)+0

    Finally create the following measure

     

    Top 3 Suppliers contribution to overall cat spend = 

    VAR TopNValue = 3
    VAR Top3Spend = CALCULATE(
    SUM('Summary Table'[Total Spend]),
    FILTER(
    ALLEXCEPT('Summary Table','Summary Table'[Category]),
    'Summary Table'[Supplier Category Rank]<=TopNValue)
    )
    VAR TotalSpend = CALCULATE(SUM('Summary Table'[Total Spend]),ALLEXCEPT('Summary Table','Summary Table'[Category]))
    RETURN DIVIDE(Top3Spend,TotalSpend)

    and format the measure to be a percentage.  I think this might be close :)

     

    If it's close, just clone the final measure 2 times for the other TopN values
