Show percentage of a number of minutes assigned to a specific name compared with total minutes

[IlMoro]

Hi,

with reference to this My old post I need now to calculate the percentage of the sum of minutes assigned to a specific name compared with the sum of total minutes of the column.

I tried this formula but it seems to not work.

Measure = 
VAR _A =
    CALCULATE(
        SUM(Table[minutes]),
        FILTER(
            ALL(Table[Names]),Table[names]="dep1")
    )
VAR _B =
        SUM(Table[minutes])
RETURN
    _B / _A

This is the table

Thanks for any help

Hi @IlMoro 

The @bcdobbs solution will solve your problem, but if you have more that one NAMES column and you want to use them in youe report then it'd be better to change the RemoveFilter to ALL, and you can use MAX(Table[names]) rather that "dep1" if you want to use this measure in a table and see % for all NAMES:

Measure = 
VAR _A =
    CALCULATE(
        SUM( Table[minutes] ),
        FILTER( ALL( Table[Names] ), able[names] = "dep1" )
    )
VAR _B =
    CALCULATE( SUM( Table[minutes] ), ALL( Table[Names] ) )
RETURN
    _B / _A

Are you dropping the measure into a matrix with department names?

Measure = 
VAR _A =
    CALCULATE(
        SUM(Table[minutes]),
        REMOVEFILTER(Table[Names]),
        Table[names]="dep1"
    )

VAR _B =
    CALCULATE(
        SUM(Table[minutes]),
        REMOVEFILTER(Table[Names])
    )
RETURN
    DIVIDE(_B, _A)
