In todays Dax tutorial we learn the usage of TOPN Dax Function in Power BI.
Usage of TOPN : Returns the top N rows of the specified table.
Syntax of TOPN: TOPN(N_Value, Table, OrderBy_Expression, [Order[, OrderBy_Expression, [Order]]…])
Parameter details of TOPN Dax Function in Power BI are given below:
N_Value The number of rows to return.
Table Any DAX expression that returns a table of data from where to extract the top 'n' rows.
OrderBy_Expression Any DAX expression where the result value is used to sort the table
Order (Optional) A value that specifies how to sort OrderBy_Expression values:
0 (zero) or FALSE. Sorts in descending order of values of Order.
1 or TRUE. Hence It can be ASC or DESC
Example 1: It can be used to create a table as shown below without specifying the order
Top 5 Rows (DB) =
TOPN(
5,financials)
Example 2: It can be used to create a table as shown below with specifying the order
Top 5 Rows (Sales) =
TOPN(
5,
financials,
financials[ Sales],ASC
)
Example 3: It can be used to refer to an Virtual table created by Power BI
Top 3 Countries (Sales) =
TOPN(
3,
SUMMARIZE(
financials,
financials[Country],
"Sales",Sum(financials[ Sales])
),
[Sales],
DESC
)
Example 4: The TOPN Dax Function can be used to create a measure as shown below
TOP 2 Countries(Avg Sales) =
AVERAGEX(
TOPN(
2,
SUMMARIZE(
financials,
financials[Country],
"Sales1",Sum(financials[ Sales])
),
[Sales1]),
[Sales1]
)
Hence TOPN can both be used to create tables and measures.
