Measure for percentile of grouped table

 

I have a table of data which looks something like,

 

ValueGroup 1Group 1
.........

 

and I want to calculate percentiles of the Value column. I want do this via Measure as I want to calculate the percentiles according to filters on Group 1 and Group 2 specified in the report.

 

So for example a slicer would be used to select values "A" and "B" for Group 1 and "C" and "D" for Group 2 and my Measure would give particular percentiles for the data matching those filters.

 

I have tried this,

 

 

PercentileMeasure = SUMMARIZE(
    'My Table',
    [Group 1],
    "Median",
    PERCENTILE.INC('My Table'[Value], 0.5)
)

 

but I cannot have a Measure which produces a table (this also only covers the case for grouping on one column).

Right, so you would use a VAR and set that equal to your SUMMARIZE and then in your RETURN you would make it a single value.
