Helper ICreate Clustered column Chart
Hello,
I am new to Power BI and still needs to learn few things. Appreciate your help here.
I have 2 tables:
Table 1: Employee Grades with Department
Table 2: Active/Inactive employees
Ask: Create Clustered coumn chart of Active employees
| D & Above | 75% | ||
| C | 25% | ||
| B | 66.66% | ||
| A | 100% | 33.33% | |
| Dept1 | Dept2 | Dept3 |
Sample Data:
Table 1:
| Department | Grade | ID |
| Dept1 | A1 | 11 |
| Dept1 | A2 | 12 |
| Dept2 | A1 | 13 |
| Dept2 | B1 | 14 |
| Dept2 | B2 | 15 |
| Dept3 | C1 | 16 |
| Dept3 | D1 | 17 |
| Dept3 | D2 | 18 |
| Dept3 | E1 | 19 |
| Dept3 | C1 | 20 |
| Dept2 | D1 | 21 |
Table 2:
| ID | Active |
| 11 | 1 |
| 12 | 1 |
| 13 | 1 |
| 14 | 1 |
| 15 | 1 |
| 16 | 1 |
| 17 | 1 |
| 18 | 1 |
| 19 | 1 |
| 20 | 0 |
| 21 | 0 |
Hi kodnil2020 ,
We can create a column and a matrix table to meet your requirement.
1. Create a calculate column to sort Grade.
Legend = SWITCH( TRUE(), CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"A"),"A", CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"B"),"B", CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"C"),"C","D & Above")Then we can create a measure and put the column to legend in Clustered Column Chart.
Measure = var _x = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 1'[ID]),FILTER('Table 2','Table 2'[Active]=1)) var _y = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 1'[ID]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table 2'),'Table 2'[Active]=1),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table 1'),'Table 1'[Department]=MAX('Table 1'[Department]))) return DIVIDE(_x,_y)If you have any question, please kindly ask here and we will try to resolve it.

kodnil2020 - Assuming that your tables are related on ID, you should just have to add Active column to your Filters pane and set it to 1.

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.And you did really well on that front! 🙂

Hi kodnil2020 ,
We can use the following steps to meet your requirement.
1. We assume that the two tables have a relationship based on [ID].
2. Then we can create a measure.
active person count = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 2'[ID]),FILTER('Table 2','Table 2'[Active]=1))Or this measure is also right.
active sum = CALCULATE(SUM('Table 2'[Active]))If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?

kodnil2020Yes. 2 tables are connected.
This is what i am looking for:
For all departments show clustered chart:
1. X axis: departments
2. Y Axis: percentage of Active Grades
Group all "A" grades and find percentage based on active employees
Group all "B" grades and find percentage based on active employees
Group all "C" grades and find percentage based on active employees
Group all "D & Above" grades and find percentage based on active employees
Sample graph & percentage calculation below:
