Calculating percentage off of a measure in a table

supergallager34 — Wed, 19 Aug 2020 21:33:35 GMT

Hello,

I have a regular table visual that contains an unpivot column (Grade, Gender) and a measure to calculate students who attend the school more than 90% of the time (which is based on IDs and a few other calculated columns). I am trying to currently do a percentage of that measure on the unpivot column in the visual. However, it is not coming up accurately since the denominator is duplicating records for the unpivot column. However, I have been unsuccessful so far. Any help would be much appreciated.

supergallager34 - I'm not 100% following this. Sounds like it *could* be a measure aggregation problem. See my blog article about that here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Design-Pattern-Groups-and-Super-Groups/ba-p/138149

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.
