Now, let's understand the next Power BI Topic *Top N in Power BI* The Top N feature is used to display only the top (or bottom) values based on a measure—like Top 5 products by sales or Bottom 10 customers by revenue. *Why Use Top N?* - Focus the viewer’s attention on key performers or underperformers. - Reduce clutter in visuals with too many categories. *How to Create Top N in Power BI* Step-by-step: 1. Add a visual, e.g., a bar chart with Product Name and Total Sales. 2. Drag the categorical field (e.g., Product) into the Filters pane. 3. Select “Top N” filter type. 4. Choose: - Top or Bottom - Number of items (e.g., 5, 10) - Based on which measure (e.g., Total Sales) 5. Click Apply Filter. *Dynamic Top N Using Slicer (Advanced)* You can also let users choose the N value dynamically: 1. Create a “Top N” table with values like 5, 10, 15. 2. Create a measure that ranks categories using RANKX. 3. Use ISINSCOPE or FILTER logic to show only values with rank ≤ selected N. This setup enhances interactivity and personalization in reports. *Use Cases* - Top 10 regions by profit. - Bottom 5 products by customer rating. - Top 3 salespeople this quarter. *Best Practice:* Always label your visuals clearly (e.g., “Top 10 Products by Revenue”) to avoid confusion. *React ❤️ for the next topic explanations* Power BI complete topics: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vai1xKf1dAvuk6s1v22c/769
