    Hi viveksasi94

    Assume your data is like

     

    Create measures in the table (for example, two weeks ago)

    today =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( [Posting Date in the Document] ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] )
    )
    
    two weeks ago measure = [today]-14
    
    otd_count =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Supplier OTD'[OTD] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] ),
            [OTD] = "on time"
                && [Posting Date in the Document] >= [two weeks ago]
                && [Posting Date in the Document] <= [today]
        )
    )
    
    
    otd_total =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Supplier OTD'[OTD] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] ),
            [Posting Date in the Document] >= [two weeks ago]
                && [Posting Date in the Document] <= [today]
        )
    )
    
    
    percent = [otd_count]/[otd_total]

     

    Or you could nest these measures into one measure

    Two Weeks ago =
    VAR today =
        CALCULATE (
            MAX ( [Posting Date in the Document] ),
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] )
        )
    VAR twoweeksago = [today] - 14
    VAR otd_count1 =
        CALCULATE (
            COUNT ( 'Supplier OTD'[OTD] ),
            FILTER (
                ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] ),
                [OTD] = "on time"
                    && [Posting Date in the Document] >= [two weeks ago measure]
                    && [Posting Date in the Document] <= [today]
            )
        )
    VAR otd_total1 =
        CALCULATE (
            COUNT ( 'Supplier OTD'[OTD] ),
            FILTER (
                ALLEXCEPT ( 'Supplier OTD', 'Supplier OTD'[name] ),
                [Posting Date in the Document] >= [two weeks ago measure]
                    && [Posting Date in the Document] <= [today]
            )
        )
    RETURN
        [otd_count] / [otd_total]
    

     

    Best Regards
