Total in period per line

Hi everyone,

 

I've tried to search and apply some solutions from the forum, but none worked for me.

 

I got a table with fields:

1. Case No.

2. Time Spend

3. Creation Date

 

I would like to calculate % participation of each case in a total time spent in a year when case was created.
But I cannot obtain the last figure - total time in a year of creation.

Data example:
Case No.   Time Spend   Creation Date    Total Time In Creation Year      % Time In Creation Year
01              1d                 01/01/21                    3d                                                    33%
02              2d                 01/01/21                    3d                                                    66%
03              3d                 01/01/22                    4d                                                   75%
03              1d                 01/01/22                    4d                                                    25%

Of course totaling of the last column should give 100% in each year.

Ok. The example from the original post gave the imprettion that the Creation Date column is allways the start of year date. 
Now you may try two methods. 
Method 1:

 

Total Time In Creation Year =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( TableName[Time Spend] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Creation Date].[Year] )
)

 

Method 2:

First Create a new column for the Year: 

Year = YEAR ( TableName[Creation Date] )

Then

Total Time In Creation Year =
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( TableName[Time Spend] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Year] )
)

Nailed it! Thank you for help.

Hi,

Thank you for suggestion, but it doesn't do the job, as limits the sum to the particular date, not the period (year in this case).

I see only 4 different dates! actually 4 different rows with absoluteley nothing in common.

Hi @NH2501 
I assume Time Spend of an integer data type, then

Total Time In Creation Year =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( TableName[Time Spend] ), ALLEXCEPT ( TableName[Creation Date] ) )
