Hi klehar ,
How about this?
Here the code in Power Query M that you can paste into the advanced editor (if you do not know, how to exactly do this, please check out this quick walkthrough)
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjDUBSIjAyNTJR0lQzOlWB10MRMsYkZYxAwgYkbIYuZYxEyxiBljETNUio0FAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [date = _t, sales = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"date", type date}, {"sales", Int64.Type}}), #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"date"}, {{"TopSales", each Table.FirstN( Table.Sort(_, {{"sales", Order.Descending}}), 2 ), type table [sales=Int64.Type]}}), #"Expanded TopSales" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Grouped Rows", "TopSales", {"sales"}, {"TopSales.sales"}) in #"Expanded TopSales"
