Dynamic Top N - Help

[Falongi_82]

Hi All,

Based on the following example (https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Top-N-with-Slicer-and-Steps/ba-p/952240), I try to implement it on my report but it doesn't work.

I can't find where it is blocking, maybe the relationships or my measures.

I would like based on a selection list, display my top N materials based on their total lines.

See below my tables :

Mesure and table created following the post :

TopN Steps = {3, 5, 10, 20}

TopN Union = UNION(ROW("Key Values", -99, "Display Values", "Others"), ALLNOBLANKROW(T_MATERIAL[MATERIAL_CODE],T_MATERIAL[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]))

==> Perhaps my problem come from the union because there is no link whith material found in the DIM_DUMP table!
I don't know ! 😞

Top X Steps =

VAR TopNumber = IF(HASONEVALUE('TopN Steps'[TopN]),VALUES('TopN Steps'[TopN]),3)

VAR Rest = COUNTROWS ( DIM_DUMP ) - TopNumber

RETURN

IF (

HASONEVALUE ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] ),

CALCULATE (

[M_TOT_LINE],

FILTER (

DIM_DUMP,

DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] = VALUES ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] )

&& CONTAINS (

TOPN (

TopNumber,

ADDCOLUMNS (

ALL ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] ),

"Tot Lines", CALCULATE (

[M_TOT_LINE],

FILTER ( DIM_DUMP, DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] = EARLIER ( [Key values] ))

)

),

[M_TOT_LINE], DESC

),

'TopN Union'[Key values], VALUES ('TopN Union'[Key values])

)

)

)

)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Other Steps =

VAR TopNumber =

IF ( HASONEVALUE ( 'TopN Steps'[TopN] ), VALUES ( 'TopN Steps'[TopN] ), 8 )

VAR Rest =

COUNTROWS ( DIM_DUMP ) - TopNumber

RETURN

IF (

HASONEVALUE ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] ),

IF (

VALUES ( 'TopN Union'[Display values] ) = "Others",

SUMX (

TOPN (

Rest,

ADDCOLUMNS (

VALUES ( DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] ),

"Tot Lines", [M_TOT_LINE]

),DIM_DUMP[M_TOT_LINE]

,ASC

),

DIM_DUMP[M_TOT_LINE]

)

)

)

thx in advance for your help and explaination that improve my knowledge

Hi @Falongi_82 ,

In DIM_DUMP table, you have duplicated MATERIAL_CODE, so you can't use countrows ,you should use distinctcount.

I did some little modification on your measures:

Top X Steps =
VAR TopNumber =
    MAX ( 'TopN Steps'[TopN] )
VAR Rest =
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] ) - TopNumber
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [M_TOT_LINE],
        FILTER (
            DIM_DUMP,
            DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] = MAX ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] )
                && CONTAINS (
                    TOPN (
                        TopNumber,
                        ADDCOLUMNS (
                            ALL ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] ),
                            "Tot Lines",
                                CALCULATE (
                                    [M_TOT_LINE],
                                    FILTER ( DIM_DUMP, DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] = EARLIER ( [Key values] ) )
                                )
                        ),
                        [M_TOT_LINE], DESC
                    ),
                    'TopN Union'[Key values], MAX ( 'TopN Union'[Key values] )
                )
        )
    )

Other Steps =
VAR TopNumber =
    MAX ( 'TopN Steps'[TopN] )
VAR Rest =
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] ) - TopNumber
RETURN
    IF (
        VALUES ( 'TopN Union'[Display values] ) = "Others",
        SUMX (
            TOPN (
                Rest,
                ADDCOLUMNS ( VALUES ( DIM_DUMP[MATERIAL_CODE] ), "Tot Lines", [M_TOT_LINE] ),
                DIM_DUMP[M_TOT_LINE], ASC
            ),
            DIM_DUMP[M_TOT_LINE]
        )
    )

If the issue is still existing. you'd better show us the sample pbix.

Hi Dedmon Dai,

I've change all my measure and follow this tuto find https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/filtering-the-top-products-alongside-the-other-products-in-power-bi/

This, seems to work but not always 😞

When for a category, I'dont have enough articles to top, the result is wrong :

see below example with Top 10 for swap proactive category 😞

My measures :

M_T_QTY = 
VAR QtyOfAll =
    CALCULATE([M_TOT_QTY], REMOVEFILTERS(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]))
RETURN
    If (
        ISINSCOPE(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]), 
        VAR ProductsToRank = [TopN Value]
        VAR IsOtherSelected = SELECTEDVALUE(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]) = "Others"
        VAR ProductsWithQtyTot =
            ADDCOLUMNS(
                ALLSELECTED(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]),
                "@QtyTot",[M_TOT_QTY]
            )
        VAR TopNProds = TOPN(ProductsToRank,ProductsWithQtyTot,[@QtyTot])
        VAR QtyOfTopN = sumx(TopNProds,[@QtyTot])
        VAR Result = IF(IsOtherSelected, QtyOfAll-QtyOfTopN,[M_TOT_QTY])

        RETURN Result, QtyOfAll)

M_RANKING = 
VAR ProductsToRank = [TopN Value]
VAR Ranking = RANKX(ALLSELECTED(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION]),[M_TOT_QTY])
VAR IsOtherSelectect = SELECTEDVALUE(T_MATERIAL_CODE_test[MAT_CODE_DESCRIPTION] ) = "Others"
VAR Result = 
    IF(
        IsOtherSelectect,
        ProductsToRank+1 ,
        IF(Ranking<=ProductsToRank,Ranking,Ranking+1)
    )
RETURN
Result

M_ROW_VISIBLE = 
VAR Ranking = [M_RANKING]
VAR TopNValue = [TopN Value]+1
VAR Result = INT( Ranking <= TopNValue)
RETURN
    Result

thx in advance for your help,
