What is the simplest way to get TOP N + Other sales figure in Power BI.

 

Can this be handled by filters?

if you intend to obtain two tables such that in the first there are the first n largest values and in the second the others, you can do so:

 

 tabSort=Table.Sort(Source,{{"sales", Order.Descending}})
TopN = Table. FirstN (tabSort, N),
others = Table.Skip (tabSort, N)

Is there a better way that you can advise to handle this requirement?

 

Can filters help to get top N + Other?

I know of other ways of achieving the same result.
If this is what you want, you should define more precisely what you mean by "better way".
Do you use less memory?
It's faster?
Do you use a single expression?
Other!?
