Hi,
1) I have Grand Total column as below, from that i need to get % column value listed below.
Grand Total 656,306
to get 30% i need to do 197,829/656,306 = 30%
to get 13% i need to do 84,635/656,306 = 13% ....so on
2)How can i get the cummulative sum from the %column?
1st row values remains same as 30%.
2nd row column value - 30%+13% = 43%
3rd row column value - 30+11+13 = 54% etc...
Please advise

Hi,
Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.
Percentage measure: =
VAR _qty =
SUM ( Data[Quantity] )
VAR _allqty =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Data[Quantity] ), REMOVEFILTERS () )
RETURN
DIVIDE ( _qty, _allqty )
Cumulate percentage measure: =
VAR _qty =
SUM ( Data[Quantity] )
VAR _cumulate =
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( Data[Quantity] ), Data[Quantity] >= _qty ),
[Percentage measure:]
)
RETURN
_cumulate
Thank you so much for the Quick Response
Cumulative sum is not working for me
if you can see Percentage % and Cummative Percentage values both are same.
I have used the Measures which you shared. but values are same
Please help ?
Hi,
Could you please share your sample pbix file's link here? And then I can try to look into it to come up with a more accurate solution.
Thanks.
Sorry i cant share the pbix file it has huge sensitive data. But i can share the screenshot of the measure which i am using.
Hi,
I cannot know the column name in your visualization that is placed in the left side of it.
Please try something like below.
Cumulate percentage measure: =
VAR _percentage = [Percentage measure:]
VAR _cumulate =
SUMX (
FILTER (
ALL ( 'TableName'[somethinglikeindexcolumn] ),
[Percentage measure:] >= _percentage
),
[Percentage measure:]
)
RETURN
_cumulate
Hi,
I am using the Country in left column of the visual
Please try the below whether it suits your requirememt.
Cumulate percentage measure: =
VAR _percentage = [Percentage measure:]
VAR _cumulate =
SUMX (
FILTER ( ALL ( 'TableName'[country] ), [Percentage measure:] >= _percentage ),
[Percentage measure:]
)
RETURN
_cumulate
When i use country column in the measure i am getting like below cummulative is not coming in correct way. Please see below
Hi,
May I ask, do you want to cumulate by country code alphabetical order? Or, by QTY descending order?
I think the measure is showing cumulate percentage by QTY descending order.
