Percentage

Hi,

 

I want to work out the moving percentage of monthly balances vs total gross advance for the same year and create a line chart based on the result.

I was trying the below Dax calculation, but getting all zeros.

Percentage =
Var _Var1 = CALCULATE(sum(MainData[Sum_GrossAdvance]),MainData[Flag_Today] = 1 && MainData[Flag_Live] in {0,1} && MainData[Flag_Closed] in {0,1})
Var _Var2 = calculate(sum(MainData[Sum_Balance]))
Var _Var3 = divide([Total Balance],[Total Gross Advanced],0)
Return _Var3

 

Below is the screen print of the tables. 

1- is split of total balance per advance year and monthly snapshot date.

2 - gross advance

  • Years = YEAR('Table'[Date])
    Total Gross Advance = SUM('Table'[Gross Advanced])
    Monthly Balance = SUM('Table'[Balance])
    Moving Percentage = DIVIDE( [Monthly Balance],
                                                          CALCULATE([Total Gross Advance], ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[Year],
                                                                                'Table'[Date] <= MAX('Table'[Date]]))))

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    It seems that both _Var1 and _Var2 are not used. Please try:

    Percentage =
    VAR _Var1 = CALCULATE(SUM(MainData[Sum_GrossAdvance]), MainData[Flag_Today] = 1 && MainData[Flag_Live] IN {0, 1} && MainData[Flag_Closed] IN {0, 1})
    VAR _Var2 = CALCULATE(SUM(MainData[Sum_Balance]))
    VAR _Var3 = DIVIDE(_Var2, _Var1, 0)
    RETURN _Var3

     

    Best Regards,
    Gao
