Filter by Top N with date

Hey all,

 

I have a table with 3 columns, Date, Product and Total

 

I am trying to use the Top N filter in a graph that has Date. The issue is that the top filter is giving me the top 5 total and not the top 5 by date.

 

Is there an easy way to get the top 5 in each month for example?

@Anonymous , usually TOPN is dependent on the column you used in it.

refer my video - TOPN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIVEFp-QiOk&list=PLPaNVDMhUXGaaqV92SBD5X2hk3TMNlHhb&index=42

 

or top inside another category - https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/filtering-the-top-3-products-for-each-category-in-power-bi/

 

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
