TRIMMEAN in MDX

In Excel I can use this formula to calculate the average in a certain period and ignore the top 20% most extreme values: TRIMMEAN(AY13:BH13,20%)

I cannot find any result when searching on MDX TRIMMEAN. I think I have to do something with RANK and calculate the average by ignore X from the top and the bottom of the ranked result. Does somebody have an example of something like that?

You need to use BottomPercent. From Microsoft's documentation, if you want to find the measure value in the bottom 80% (exclude the top 20%), then you can have something like this:

SELECT [Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount] ON 0,  
BottomPercent  
   ({[Geography].[Geography].[City].Members}  
   , 80  
   , [Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]  
   ) ON 1  
FROM [Adventure Works]  
WHERE([Product].[Product Categories].[Bikes])

Further details can be found here BottomPercent
