    Hi, powerbiuser9999 

     

    You can try the following methods.

    1. Create a new calculation column to rank the COUNT of sales.
    Rank = 
RANK.EQ ( [COUNT of sales], 'Table'[COUNT of sales], DESC )

     

        2. Create a measure to sum the top five.

    Measure =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[COUNT of sales] ),
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Rank] <= 5 )
)

Try a measure like this one:

 

 

TOP5 sum of count of sales =
CALCULATE( SUM('Table'[ COUNT of sales] ),
TOPN (
5,
ADDCOLUMNS (
VALUES ( 'Table'[Category     ] ),
"@Count of Sales", CALCULATE( SUM('Table'[ COUNT of sales] ) )
),
[@Count of Sales],
DESC
)
)

 

Please give it a thumbs up if this helps!
