Top 10 does not work correctly
Hi everyone,
I have a problem on my mesure and I don't know why. I try to do a TOP10 of YTD quantity by Customers. I want the TOP 9 Customers and the last will be the "Others" customers.
For do that, I did 2 mesures :
Mesure = RANKX(ALL('A - Dimensions'[Customer DO - ABC]);'D - YTD Measures'[YTD Qty])and
top 10 = IF('A - Dimensions'[Mesure]<10; 'A - Dimensions'[Customer DO - ABC] ;"Top Others")When I try validate my last mesures my computer crash because this resquest need to do many calculate but I don't understand why.
Exemple of Data :
| Customers | YTD Qty | Mesure | TOP 10 | |
| Customers 3 | 399 | 1 | 1 | |
| Customers 5 | 389 | 2 | 2 | |
| Customers 1 | 350 | 3 | 3 | |
| Customers 2 | 260 | 4 | 4 | |
| Customers 4 | 234 | 5 | 5 | |
| Customers 10 | 222 | 6 | 6 | |
| Customers 15 | 200 | 7 | 7 | |
| Customers 12 | 157 | 8 | 8 | |
| Customers 10 | 156 | 9 | --> | 9 |
| Customers 6 | 148 | 10 | Others | |
| Customers 8 | 100 | 11 | Others | |
| Customers 13 | 99 | 12 | Others | |
| Customers 9 | 49 | 13 | Others | |
| Customers 14 | 29 | 14 | Others | |
| Customers 11 | 2 | 15 | Others |
This is what I try to do with the name of others customers too :
Can you help me to understand it and fix it ?
Thanks a lot,
Alex
HI A_Barny,
You can add new calculate to replace top 10 values, then use new column as category.
Category = IF([TOP 10]<>"Others",[Customers],[TOP 10])
