Adding Rows Together in Matrix to be Used in a Measure

I am not sure how to even explain without just showing you my issue...ha! 

 

I have 5 rows that make up revenue, and I need to add them together so that I can use that total to calculate the % of revenue for the other lines in my matrix. 

 

I need to use this Revenue total in a calculation to populate a % of revenue for each line item on my income statement. 

I am currently using the following to calculate the total:

However, when I use this new measure 'Revenue $' to calculate Results $/Revenue, it only populates the lines that are listed in the 'Revenue $' calculation, see below. 

I am pretty sure my issue is in the "Revenue $" calculation, because if I perform the same % revenue calculation and plug a random number in the denominator (i.e. $500,000), the calculation works for all rows. 

 

Any thoughts on what I could be doing incorrectly? 

 

Thanks.

    Hi BrendaB 
    for Total revenue you can try below measure:

    Revenue% =
    var x= CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Revenue]),ALLSELECTED('Table'[Year],'Table'[Month],'Table'[Branch Name]))
    Var y = SUM('Table'[Revenue])
    Return DIVIDE(y,x,0)
     
    Whatever level of hierarchy you are using you have add in all selected (function). in  my case 100% i want in Total column then this divides with every cell.

     

     

    I hope you understand the scenario.
