Here, I changed the expression for trigger to this

='=Count({1}DISTINCT TOTAL Top_BU) - Rank(Only({1}Top_BU)) + 1 <= vTop_X_BU'

Top_BU is list of Business Unit arranged according to priority defined for Business Team ...  

sunny_talwar

But Top_BU is sorted in order of Text? Is it a coincidence that Top_BU is in the same order of the ascending order of text? This makes me uncomfortable... are you sure you are putting your requirement in the right way?

Hi Sunny Bhai

Yeah Requirement is pretty similar to real time . And it is incidental that Top_BU is sorted , however in real time the data is not according to sorted order but according to priority set by Top level managements . I can see some BU starting with letter S on second and 3rd position in real time Data . Basic idea was the achieve or to enable the user to see % contribution by Top X business Unit ...

You can change the Top_BU order the way you want . I does not change requirement .

Are you able to create a field where you give the top_BU a ranking in the script based on what is decided by the top level management?

No i have not done that . Actually management based on their own criteria concludes the Rank for BU . I dont have privy to that . They only share excel sheet where in the BU in first row assumed to Top BU . You may consider 1 st record in excel to have rank 1 , 2nd one as rank second and likewise . And these order changes in every quarter .
So basically position of BU in excel sheet determines their "Topness" , if i may call it so ...

If user selects 3 from drop down then first 3 BU should be taken in set and their respective revenue % should be calculated ..
