Measure to Create Static Top Item List

I'm looking to create a measure that will allow me to filter out only the top 250 items. I'm connected to a live database, so I cannot create columns.    I have an item, customer, and sales table. ...

    Strange, perhaps try it like this.

    Top 250 Item Sales =
VAR _TopN = 10
VAR _TopProducts =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        TOPN (
            _TopN,
            ALL ( 'Item'[Item Number External] ),
            [Net Sales Product LY], DESC
        ),
        'Market Channel'[Market Channel] = "ED",
        REMOVEFILTERS ( Customer ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Item', 'Item'[Item Number External] )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        [Net Sales Product YTD],
        FILTER (
            VALUES ( 'Item'[Item Number External] ),
            'Item'[Item Number External] IN ( _TopProducts )
        )
    )
        + IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Item'[Item Number External] ) IN ( _TopProducts ), 0 )

astano05 , Try measure like

 

Measure =
Var _tab = TOPN(250,all(Table[Item]),[Sales],DESC)
return
calculate([sales], filter(Table, Table[item] in _tab))

Thanks for the response. I get an error with that measure that the visual can't be displayed.

 

I used this measure which is getting me close:

rankx(CALCULATETABLE(all('Item'),'Market Channel'[Market Channel]="ED"),[Net Sales LY])
 
However, the rankings still change when i change the customer using a slicer. It ranks the items in the context of the customer.
