Hi,
I am trying to use the Divide function to calculate %YDT Target. Can someone help me why it's giving incorrect numbers? Did I miss something?
Thank you!
What is you divide function ?
Looks like you are trying to Divide Max Cumm Actual with MAX YTD Target
If that's the case then you can use Divide
YTD % = Divide(MAX([Cumm Acutal]),MAX[[YTD Target]),BLANK())

To handle error in Division i.e. Divide by Zero

HI @sbhan4 , You need to change it as below to see what you are expecting in % column.

@Anonymous , on the measure use in the formula not visible in the table. Once seems to be YTD and another is cumulative.
You can use time intelligence with date table
YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))
This year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR('Date'[Date]),"12/31"))
Last year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)),"12/31"))
Last to last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,Year),"12/31"))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))
//Only year vs Year, not a level below
This Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))
Power BI — YTD

Both columns should be YTD
In case you need cumulative
Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date,date[date] <=maxx(date,date[date])))
Cumm Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),filter(date,date[date] <=max(Sales[Sales Date])))
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Appreciate your Kudos.
@Anonymous - I like @pranit828 comment. Overall though, Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
HI @Anonymous
What you have displayed in the cumm actual and YTD target are aggregated vale showing MAX, this is why when you calculate it manually shows different value
