Percentage Measure by Row Category

Hi all,

 

Can someone help, as I'm struggling with what I think is basic measure. I'm using a matrix table to produce the following table, but I cannot get the percentages to work. The table will show me the correct values, when I try convert them to a %, it is not working.

 

For each person I need to show how the proportion that is 'above' and 'at or below' target for each area. All the data is in one table, with the following fields:

 

 

Area = RegionArea

Target = TargetResult

Person = SalesPerson

Result = Count (numeric) 

 

AreaTargetPerson 1Person 2Person 3Person 4
Area 1At or Below52.3%29.9%7.3%0.3%
 Above47.7%70.1%92.7%99.7%
Area 2At or Below93.7%62.2%62.8%20.0%
 Above6.3%37.8%37.2%80.0%
Area 3At or Below81.9%63.0%16.5%13.5%
 Above18.1%37.0%83.5%86.5%
Area 4At or Below94.9%95.6%33.8%1.6%
 Above5.1%4.4%66.2%98.4%



Can anyone help?

Hello @Saes,

 

Can you please try this:

 

1. Create a Base Measure for Count:

Total Count = SUM(Table[Result])

2. Calculate the Percentage

Percentage = 
DIVIDE(
    [Total Count], 
    CALCULATE([Total Count], ALL(Table[TargetResult]))
)

With these measures and setup, you should be able to achieve the desired output. Should you require my further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
