Hi,
I'm trying to calculate the percentage of the column and sub culumn subtotal for each sub-category in Matrix visual :
I duplicated the table and tried to calculate the value as the percent of the column total but the calculation done by the column subtotal :
The actual calculation is the red field divided by the blue field, the desired calculation should be the red divided by the green field - in this case - 48.51%.
The calculation should be applied for all the fields in Table 2, any ideas?
Thanks

You can create a measure as follows:
Percentage of Row =
VAR __SalesAmount = [Sales Amount]
VAR __RowSubTotal = CALCULATE( [Sales Amount] , REMOVEFILTERS( 'Product'[Subcategory] ))
VAR __GrandSubTotal = CALCULATE( [Sales Amount] , REMOVEFILTERS( 'Product'[Category] , 'Product'[Subcategory] ))
VAR __ResultSubTotal = DIVIDE( __SalesAmount, __RowSubTotal)
VAR __ResultGrandTotal = DIVIDE( __SalesAmount, __GrandSubTotal)
RETURN
IF( ISINSCOPE( 'Product'[Subcategory] ) , __ResultSubTotal , __ResultGrandTotal)
