How to create Power BI TOP N and others Report

Hello All.

 

I need to get the top 2 client group sales and the rest is to be shown as others. TopN client (number [No.]) will be selected from the filters (Advance filter) and rest all clients should show as other.

 

What best measure should I use to this result?

Hi @gauravnarchal ,

1. Create a new table manually like this:

2. Create these measures:

Total Sales =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Sale Amt] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Client Group] )
)
Sales Amount Top =
CALCULATE (
    [Total Sales],
    KEEPFILTERS ( TOPN ( 2, ALL ( 'Table'[Client Group] ), [Total Sales] ) )
)
Sales Amount Other =
CALCULATE (
    [Total Sales],
    KEEPFILTERS (
        EXCEPT (
            ALL ( 'Table'[Client Group] ),
            TOPN ( 2, ALL ( 'Table'[Client Group] ), [Total Sales] )
        )
    )
)
Sales Amount Other Total Only =
IF ( NOT ( ISFILTERED ( 'Table'[Client Group] ) ), [Sales Amount Other] )
Sales Amount Top & Others =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( 'Top & Other'[Top] ),
    SWITCH (
        VALUES ( 'Top & Other'[Top] ),
        "Top2", [Sales Amount Top],
        "Other", [Sales Amount Other Total Only]
    ),
    [Sales Amount Top]
)

3. Use a Matrix visual to show the result:

I would create a calculated table based on your distinct client groups. 

then add the following columns ot the table :
-Sales = Sum(sales amnt)

-rank = RANKX(All(client groups), [Sales],,,Dense)
-topn = if([rank] <= 2 , "Top 2", "Other" )

 

Does this make sense? 

@Anonymous  It is not summarizing others in one row. See below screenshot.
