Hi guys,
I have a Stacked Column Chart with Spend vs Fiscal Year data. The Total Amount columns are broken down into Category values.
How do I make it so that only the 5 Fiscal Year by Amount are shown in graph?, and so for next year 2019 will display 2019-2024
I wrote this function, Column
YearRank= RANKX(FILTER(Table1,Table1[ColumnYear] = EARLIER(Table1[ColumnYear])),Table1[Amount],,DESC,Dense)
Then I create a another column
Column = IF(Table1[YearRank] <= 5, [ColumnYear],"Wrong Date")
but I'm getting an error
Expressions that yield variant data-type cannot be used to define calculated columns.
I appreciate any help! Thank you!
Hi @Stuznet,
One sample for your reference.
1. Create a calculated table.
Table = GENERATESERIES(1899,2100,1)
2. Create a measure as below.
Measure = var y = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Year])
return
IF(MAX(Table1[year])>=y && MAX(Table1[year])<=y+5,1,0)
3. Create the Stacked Column Chart and add the measure to tooltip and make the visual filterd by the measure.
For more details, please check the pbix as attached.

@v-frfei-msftThank you for providing your solution however it doesn't seem to work for me. I followed what you did but I'm getting false result
Hi @Stuznet,
Did you select any value in the slicer?
