    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    We can use the following steps to meet your requirement.

     

    1. Create a measure to calculate the distinct count value and the value is greater than 15.

     

    Measure = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(A[Value]),A[Value]>15)

     

    2. Then we can put the measure to filter on this visual and filter TOP 5 name.

     

     

    The result like this,

     

     

    If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?

    BTW, pbix as attached.

     

    Best regards,

Anonymous , You can create a table with a distinct name and join the other table with that. You can always use count distinct from name table

 

Name = distinct(Table[Name])

 amitchandak ,

I created Table B with Distinct Name from Table A, I can also count the number of Distinct Names with CALCULATE COUNTROWS, but so the Slicer I use to filter Year will not work.

 

Please check my pbix file.

    Anonymous , I created two measures. The COlumn will not respond to changes. You can change count distinct to countrows. One that uses Table A column can one work on one directional relation. One on the table B need bi-directional relation
