Percent decrease measure
Hello,
I'm new to powerbi and need help creating a quick measure to calculate a 5% reduction for a baseline total that I have:
Ex: 5% decrease from 3,170
The 3,170 total is being calculated by another measure. Can someone help.
Thank you
Hi Anonymous,
Let's say the measure that calculates the value 3170 is called [Total]. You can calculate 5% reduction by writing a simple measure that takes 95% of 3170 ([Total]).
Use:
Reduction = [Total] * 0.95Did I answer your question? Mark this post as a solution if I did!
