Calculate percentage based on the area

[geeklarokcmie]

Hello experts,

I'm looking for a measure that calculates a percentage based on the total of all the money spent divided by sum of money spent in each area.

Area	Sum of money spent	Percentage based on total by area
BO	10,935	3.090992227
FA	792	42.67676768
IA	18016	1.876110124
IT	4057	8.33127927
Total	33,800

Thank you

Hi @geeklarokcmie - First, create a measure to calculate the total amount spent.

Eg: TotalAmountSpent = SUM(SpendingData[some of amount spent])

create an one more measure to calculate the percentage of money spent in each area

PercentageSpentInArea =
DIVIDE(
SUM(SpendingData[Amount]),
[TotalAmountSpent],
0
)

use the above measure in your table chart and see the values will work as per expectations.

Im getting all the percentage values as 100.00% using your DAX measure

Hi @geeklarokcmie 

Would a measure like this help?

Pct = 
    DIVIDE(
        SUM( 'Table'[Sum of money spent] ),
        CALCULATE(
            SUM('Table'[Sum of money spent] ),
            ALL( 'Table' )
        )
    )
