@DeepDive ,

You can have ytd like

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))

overall Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),all('Date'))

 

On overall sales you can have rank or top N for category and filter

Top 5 category Rank = CALCULATE([overall  Sales],TOPN(10,all(Item[category ]),[overall  Sales],DESC),VALUES(Geography[Item category ]))
