A measure to show the aggregate total

[guyinazo]

So I am trying to get a column that shows the sum of the cumulative totals of item counts from a data set.  Here is an example:

TITLE	Cumulative Total
AAA	100
BBB	75
CCC	55
DDD	40
EEE	25
Total	295

Here is what I want the final result to be

TITLE	Cumulative Total	All Record Totals	Percentage of total
AAA	100	295	33.90%
BBB	75	295	25.42%
CCC	55	295	25.42%
DDD	40	295	13.56%
EEE	25	295	8.47%
Total	295		100%

I know I need to do something like All Record Totals = CALCULATE([Cumulative Total],ALLSELECTED(TITLE)), but when I do this, I only get the Cumulative total returned.

What might I be doing wrong?  (Can you tell I am trying to do a Pareto?)  Thanks!

Hey @guyinazo ,

maybe you can share your PBIX file?

For me the formula looked good and also my example works with your measure:

Hi @guyinazo 

You can achieve that result by creating a new column with the below DAX formula and make sure to format it to purcentage 

Percentage of total = 
VAR _t=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Cumulative Total]),REMOVEFILTERS('Table'))
Return 'Table'[Cumulative Total]/_t

Did it work ? Mark it as a solution to help spreading knowledge.

A kudos would be appreciated

Thanks, that is exactly what I needed.  I had an error in the ALLSELECTED parameter as I was looking at a singular value and not the table as a whole.  It is good now.  Thanks!
