TOPN

Finding the top Nth largest or smallest data from a result set is a common request we receive in our everyday work as data analysts. Those N-values at the top or bottom of the list have a lot of power, which could help with their potential interpretations. Consider the hundreds of goods you might have in your business. You must be aware of which products are most popular and which are underperforming as a businessperson. You can guarantee your business growth with that knowledge. Making business choices will be simpler for you if you are familiar with the best-selling products. The TOPN() dax function in DAX has the best and simplest solution for your issue. My PBIX file on it contains more details, which you can read.

In the world of data analysis, especially in complex industries like distribution, building efficient dashboards can be a daunting task. I was recently asked to create a dashboard that tracks the performance hygiene of multiple distribution businesses. We called this dashboard "Rise of Discipline." The Challenge: Monitoring Performance Hygiene The key performance indicators (KPIs) we needed to track were quite comprehensive, including: Daily on-time presence of all employees at each distribution house. Daily Sales Target vs. Achievement (TGT vs ACH). Daily on-time (within Service Level Agreement - SLA) sales confirmation. Daily on-time deposit confirmation. Weekly petty expense entry (at least two times per week). Monthly budget vs. expense status. To complicate things further, we could only measure performance on weekdays.

In this fictional tale, we’ll use made-up numbers and scenarios to explore how Better Buys Wholesale (an imaginary FMCG giant) solved their inventory issues. For structure, I’m leaning on ChatGPT for support, while my own experience fills in the rest! The Better Buys Inventory Dilemma Picture this: Better Buys Wholesale is swimming in SKUs—over 1,500 of them. Their inventory spans everything from daily necessities to seasonal favorites.
