2 measures, 1 for rank and 1 for % of total with gaps in the data

Hi folks, 

 

I have data that looks like this 

Ref IDIssue Description
123456Will not start
123456No power
123456 
123456 
789236Will not start
789236Missing component
789236 
986542 
986542Exterior Damage
986542 

 

I have a Ref table which contains all of the above data and more. I have a dim table referenced from that with the Issues listed, dups & blanks removed. 

 

What i am looking to do is get a % of the total for the issues columns, so in the example above, "Will not start" would be 40% etc like below as I only want to count once for each ref ID number

 

Issue Description% of Total Issues
Will not start40%
Missing Component20%
No power20%
Exterior Damage20%

 

I am also trying to do a separate measure to allow for ranking of this data. 

 

Appreciate any help with this as I'm failing miserably at getting this to work.

Create A measure DistinctCount(SomeID) and then in the Table visual you can drag the Measure Twice and convert one field to % to Total using Show Value as option.
