I have 60 schools, and I want users to be able to select a school and see a number of different factors like the proportion of boys, receiving free meals etc in one bar chart, and then I want another bar chart below it to show the 3 schools in the data set with the closest values to the chosen schools figure. This needs to update everytime the users picks a new school. Ideally there would also be a text box that contains the name of the school that appears most frequently in the top 3 boxes of all the measures. I am pretty new to PowerBI so grateful for any help. thanks. examples/data below.
School Name | % Boys | % EAL | % FSM | % PP | % SEND |
School 1 | 50% | 37% | 41% | 42% | 17% |
School 2 | 44% | 4% | 46% | 47% | 19% |
School 3 | 43% | 20% | 14% | 15% | 5% |
School 4 | 45% | 1% | 33% | 36% | 8% |
School 5 | 48% | 48% | 68% | 69% | 15% |

Hi @catrin_reach ,
1 Create a Parameter table for field. (used to select the factors)
Field Parameters in Power BI - Microsoft Power BI Community
2 Create a slicer table for school. (used to selecte the school name)
3 Create measure named "if closest 3 items"
if closest 3 items =
VAR _s =
SELECTEDVALUE ( Slicer[School Name] )
VAR _sfactors =
MAX ( Parameter[Parameter] )
VAR _sr =
CALCULATE (
SWITCH (
_sfactors,
"% Boys", MAX ( 'Table'[% Boys] ),
"% EAL", MAX ( 'Table'[% EAL] ),
"% FSM", MAX ( 'Table'[% FSM] ),
"% PP", MAX ( 'Table'[% PP] ),
MAX ( 'Table'[% SEND] )
),
FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [School Name] = _s )
)
VAR _r =
TOPN (
3,
FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), [School Name] <> _s ),
ABS (
SWITCH (
_sfactors,
"% Boys", [% Boys],
"% EAL", [% EAL],
"% FSM", [% FSM],
"% PP", [% PP],
[% SEND]
) - _sr
), ASC
)
RETURN
IF (
CONTAINS ( _r, 'Table'[School Name], SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[School Name] ) ),
1,
0
)
Then put it in filter pane and set it show item which is 1.
Then result:
Pbix file in the end you can refer.
Find the closest 3 items based on filter.pbix
Best regards.
