Why don't you try dimension limit ?

Hi,

The dependency to restrict the rows is based on expression value.  I am not able to do in dimension limit.  Please let me know if any work around is there.

Hi,

I have to show top performing cities based on Net Profits.  I have one dimension which is city and 4 other expressions showing Revenue, Cost, Gross Profit and Net Profit.  The customer wants to see only top 3 performing cities based on net profit in a straight table chart.

You can try with calculated dimension, expression something like:

=Aggr( if(Rank(Sum([Net Profit]))<4, City), City)

In the dimension tab-> tick on , "Supress When Value is Null"

You have to select suppress when value is null in the dimension tab selecting the calculated dimension

Hi

See the attach.

Dimention limit to 3, and further in straight table I sort to required expr., asc or desc.

Note, that if you use expr that is a result of calcualtion based on the values of other expr, f.e. sum(Gross-Cost) so it is ok, but if you will use the construction with Cloumn(1)-Column(2) sorting by double clicking the expr in straigh table will not working.

I hope it will help!
