TOP N

Hello Everyone

Just trying some stuff in TOP N Filter

I have a report with ski resorts, so i was doing TOP 5 highest point resorts by country

Now if i choose TOP N BY country, am getting more than 5

But if i choose TOP N by resort i get the correct values, please have a look at sheet 'Top N' to see both versions

Why is the difference, am using explicity measure "Maximum" for highest point, so it should calculate maximum by country and resort isnt?

Please advise why the answers are different https://catallah-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/chahineatallah_catallah_onmicrosoft_com/Edmd9uQJ6-... 

Thanks

Your filter is likely working, but it is filtering to the top five countries, each of which has many resorts. If you need only 5 rows, then you need to keep filtering on resort.
