Two What-If parameters working together

I have created two what if parameters to be able to show the top N (5, 10, 15 etc) ranking and then another paramater that filters out any sales that are below a certain threshold.

 

I would expect the graph to still show the top N but instead the minimum number of sales parameter overrides the ranking. For example the below graph should be showing 20 bars but instead is only showing 6

 

Is there a way to get the parameters to work correctly together?

So far I have tried the interactions and syncing but can't seem to get it to work correctly.

Thanks in advance.

    e_j , Try measures like

     

    //use sales filter first

    M1= CALCUALTE(sumx(filter(VALUES(Data[Customer]), [sales] >= selectedvalues(salesparam[salesparam])),[sales]))

     

     

    //Then filter TOPN

    M2 = CALCULATE( [M1],TOPN(selectedvalues(Rankval[Rankval]),allselected(Data[Customer]),[M1],DESC))

    Hi e_j, 

    Did the folders create based on the same what-if parameter table? AFAIK, current power bi not able to get different selections from the filters with same data source filed.

    I'd like to suggest you create two what-if parameter tables and use them to create slicer/filters, then you can use DAX functions to extract the selection from two tables.
