% GT over two columns

Hi,

 

I'm a complete novice on Power BI but I'm trying to combine two columns with similar data (e.g. 1-5) to create a GT% overall.

 

e.g. Count A contains different number of 1-5 data than Count B.

 Count ACount B% of GT of Count A + B
1172682.14%
2610134317.44%
33016286852.55%
41779129827.48%
522220.39%
Total55995599100.00%

Hi,

 

Create a measure:

 

 

% of GT = sumx(Table1;Table1[Count A]+Table1[Count B])/calculate(SUM(Table1[Count A])+SUM(Table1[Count B]);all(Table1))

Replace table1 with the name of your table.

 

The sumx function takes the sum of count A and count B at row level.

The second part takes the sum of count A+count B for the whole table (it does this because we use a the "ALL" function which ignores the current context of the row. For you to understand the solution, search some info about the DAX functions: All, Calculate, SUM and SUMX.
