    Hi S1S0,

     

    Maybe you need a measure like this.

    ranks =
RANKX (
    ALL ( 'DimCustomer'[CustomerLabel] ),
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( FactSales[SalesQuantity] ) )
)

    Top_N_Values_by_Year

     

    Best Regards,

Afternoon

I appreciate this was answered quite some ago but hopefully someone can help.
I have given a rank to all my data using the method above however when apply this to a bar chart it doesn't seem to actually remove the values, only hide them.

So when a specific data entry appears in the top 5 on one year but not the next, it is leaving a space for this reason. Is there anyway to close the gap so it gives me the top 5 reasons for each year clustered together no matter what they are?

 

Thanks in advance
