Create visual with column name of top n values

Hi, everyone. I need some help.

I have a database called "Base" with some columns:
1 - ID
2 - Company: Company name 
3 - Origin: List of origin cities
4 - Destination: List of destination cities
5 - Amount(kg): Amount of Kg transported

(Example - Base database)

I want to create a table as follows:

  • In the first column, it should contain the names of the companies.
  • The second column should be called "Top 1" and should specify the name of the destination with the highest sum of transported Kg
  • The third column, called "Top 2," should specify the name of the destination with the SECOND highest sum of transported Kg.
  • The fourth, fifth, and so on should follow the same logic.

(Desired visual - Example)

I have tried the code below, but without success.

Destino Mais Utilizado = 
VAR DestinoMaisUtilizado =
    TOPN(1,
        SUMMARIZE('Base', 'Base'[Destination], "Total KG Carga Paga", SUM('Base'[Amount (kg)])),[Total KG Carga Paga], DESC)

RETURN
    SELECTCOLUMNS(DestinoMaisUtilizado, "Destino Mais Utilizado", 'Base'[Destination])

 

Thanks!
