I use below spl to get top 10 cust by sales, but looks like it is creating a OTHER category whcih i dont want to visualize in graph. How can i exclude it? OTHER is not in the data.

source="swerve_sales.csv" host="swerve" sourcetype="csv-sales" | timechart sum(TOTAL) as sales by FIRSTNAME | sort - sales | head 10
