I have two tables as per below
Balance | |
Year-Period | Total |
2021-01 | 872754 |
2021-02 | 849699 |
2021-03 | 846236 |
2021-04 | 804638 |
2021-05 | 797641 |
2021-06 | 820140 |
2021-07 | 797847 |
2021-08 | 795613 |
2021-09 | 778706 |
2021-10 | 783681 |
2021-11 | 807549 |
2021-12 | 807932 |
2022-01 | 801786 |
Values | |
Year-Period | Turnover |
2021-01 | 194866 |
2021-02 | 241215 |
2021-03 | 219672 |
2021-04 | 217108 |
2021-05 | 198586 |
2021-06 | 169087 |
2021-07 | 166488 |
2021-08 | 204115 |
2021-09 | 198671 |
2021-10 | 202633 |
2021-11 | 229480 |
2021-12 | 206510 |
2022-01 | 184861 |
So the end result should be something like
Values | ||
Year-Period | Value | Ratio |
2021-01 | 194866 | 0.223277 |
2021-02 | 241215 | 0.283882 |
2021-03 | 219672 | 0.259587 |
2021-04 | 217108 | 0.269821 |
2021-05 | 198586 | 0.248966 |
2021-06 | 169087 | 0.206168 |
2021-07 | 166488 | 0.208671 |
2021-08 | 204115 | 0.256551 |
2021-09 | 198671 | 0.255129 |
2021-10 | 202633 | 0.258565 |
2021-11 | 229480 | 0.284169 |
2021-12 | 206510 | 0.255603 |
2022-01 | 184861 | 0.230561 |
I need to calculate a ratio by dividing the amount in the Turnover column in the Value table, by the Total Column in the Balance Table (for each row). I have created a relationship between the tables (based on the Year-Period) column.
The Balance column is actually a calculated column (but I dont believe that should make a difference) and both tables actually have other columns I am using for different visulisations
This should be simple, (and it is in sql or Excel), but I am new to PowerBI and I am struggling. I can calculate a ratio of the totals of each column, but not a row by row result
Solved! Go to Solution.
you can try this
Column = 'values'[Turnover]/ RELATED(balance[Total])
