Hi ONCKdata,

 

I 'm not very clear about your scenario. Which TopN do you want to filter? Customer or Revenue?

 

If it is convenient, could you share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the scenario, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive or Dropbox and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.)

 

I would appreciate it If you could describe your expected output in more details.

 

Best Regards,

Cherry

      Hi Cherry,

      I was just verifying the file that I have sent you, magically, the TopN filter from DAX is working after adding the required measure in the inbuilt TopN filter, i.e., topN in the 'desired' sheet if I give an arbitrarily large input of for the inbuilt TopN under filters, the dynamic one is giving desired output.

       

      I do not understand the logic behind it, though.
