Need Help creating advanced measures based off of other measures

Hello all,

 

I am fairly new to PowerBI and as i build my data model im running into some issues with advanced metrics/calculations.  I have been able to create metrics for sales % and unit % mix but now im trying to create a % mix for these calculated measures called Bleeders and Leaders (Delta Association Terminology).

 

The Measures I created, Bleeders and Leaders, show the Categories that have either declined (Bleeders) YoY, MoM or PoP and have gained (Leaders) PoP.  Now what i want to do is create a % Mix for both so i can report not only the ABS $ amount the category is up or down but also the % of the bleeders or Leaders it represets.

 

I know how to calculate this in PowerPivot but i cant seem to get it to work with in PowerBI Desktop itself.

 

Any Help would be much appreciated and i can give more examples or a better explanation if needed.

 

Thanks,

I was able to solve for % Mix but not the more advanced metrics.  If people need the solution, i will be happy to provide for % mix.

 

Thanks!

To be general, can abs([measure1] - [measure2]) work? If can't, could you share some sample data and clarify the logic of how to achieve a %Mix measure?
