I'm trying to return a list of the top 4 time hours of calls answered.
I have a measure for the MAXX peak time, but want to include the top 3 and return the associated Time, as opposed to the actual value of sum of calls.
The Peak time measure works fine as below: But only spits out the one max time. The table above is filtered for ranking 1-4, so I would like a measure for ranking 2, ranking 3 and ranking 4, so I can include it in a statment. And say "The top peak times of calls was 2pm, 4pm, 1p, 11am and 3pm.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Create a measure like
DAX Peak time Calls 4 hours =
VAR TotalSalesPerHour =
SUMMARIZE (
'Aggregated Daily',
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour],
"TotalCalls", [Calls measure]
)
VAR Result =
CONCATENATEX (
TOPN ( 4, TotalSalesPerHour, [TotalCalls] ),
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour],
", ",
[TotalCalls]
)
RETURN
Result
This will return more than 4 rows in the event of ties.
Following on from this above... if I now have the returned top 5 peak times of calls coming in. To also calculate the actual total number of calls, within the calculated top5 time frames: see below:
Peak time Calls 4 hours =
VAR TotalSalesPerHour =
SUMMARIZE (
'Aggregated Daily',
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour],
"TotalCalls", [Calls measure]
)
VAR Top4Hours =
TOPN ( 4, TotalSalesPerHour, [TotalCalls] )
VAR Top4HoursList =
SELECTCOLUMNS(Top4Hours, 'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour])
VAR Result =
CALCULATE (
SUM('Aggregated Daily'[Calls measure]),
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour] IN Top4HoursList
)
RETURN
Result
Create a measure like
DAX Peak time Calls 4 hours =
VAR TotalSalesPerHour =
SUMMARIZE (
'Aggregated Daily',
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour],
"TotalCalls", [Calls measure]
)
VAR Result =
CONCATENATEX (
TOPN ( 4, TotalSalesPerHour, [TotalCalls] ),
'Aggregated Daily'[Time Hour],
", ",
[TotalCalls]
)
RETURN
Result
This will return more than 4 rows in the event of ties.
This worked perfect!!
