Top N shows more rows than expected

[N4gash]

Hi

I'm having troubles using Top N to show only the first 10 rows, I know that it works as expected and returns the first 10 values based on the measure. In my case it returns 18 rows.

My dataset is like this and i want to show only the first 10 rows:

When I apply this filter...

... it returns more than 10 rows:

It's ok, it's the normal behaviour of the TOP because it's based on the measure sum_winners, but I only want the first 10 names.I've tried using RANX and TOPN without success, please, anyone has the key?

Thanks in advance,

Regards

Hi,

There's a tie.  Hence you see more than 10 rows.  If you want to see only 10 when there are ties, then which 10 do you want to see?

Hi @N4gash ,

Please try below steps:
1. below is my test table

Table:
 

2. create measure with below dax formula

Sum_winners = SUM('Table'[Winners])

Measure =
VAR tmp =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        VALUES ( 'Table'[Name] ),
        TOPN ( 10, ALL ( 'Table' ), [Sum_winners], DESC )
    )
VAR _name =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Name] )
RETURN
    IF ( _name IN tmp, 1 )

3. add a teable visual with fields and measure, add a measure to visual filter pane and apply

Please refer the attached .pbix file.
