Dynamic Parameter

I have a parameter I am trying to create in order to determine the revenue associated with a dynamic number of customers. This formula gives me all of the revenue rather than limiting it to the number of customers selected by the parameter. How would I fix this?

Top N =
   Calculate(sum([Rev]),
       TopN(Parameter Value, VALUES([Customer Rank]), sum([Rev]), ASC)
)

Hi @czuniga ,

 

We can create a measure as below to work on it.

Measure = 
VAR a =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        'Table',
        "rank", RANKX ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[value],, DESC, DENSE )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX ( FILTER ( a, [rank] <= Parameter[Parameter Value] ), 'Table'[value] )

Hi @czuniga ,

use the what-if parameter, see figure. It creates a new table with a measure. Insert this measure in your TopN measure.

@FrankAT  That's what I'm using. I apologize if that wasn't clear.
