Calculate percentage of total for matrix column

Hi,

 

I have data displayed in a matrix:

 

Percentage of column.PNG

 

(I removed sensitive first column, but there is a first column with product names)

 

Here is the  definition of the matrix:

What I want to do is that every column percentage sums 100% at the bottom, My tries always gives as the percentage of the whole data.

 

My variable definition is as follows:

 

% Bat Presencia = var paso1= CALCULATE(SUM('BATERÍAS'[Veces]),ALLSELECTED()) return sum('BATERÍAS'[Veces])/paso1

 

This works nice when there is one column.

 

Help is greatly appreciated.

You can't remove other filters in table1, but keep a column for context filter from table2 reserved. Even you have built the relationship between two tables, it will return entire table1 as context without taking the values from [MEDICION] column. You have to put the [MEDICION] into table1 to group your calculation as you have done.

Do You need every column Sum 100% and each row the Correct %. Example: (12483/19003)=65.7%

Fixed!!!

 

With your proposed solution a got 100% on every row of the table, my measure "MEDICION" comes from another table. I moved MEDICION to the analysis table and now it is fixed. I do not have the time to figure out why a valid related column from another table was causing the problem.

 

Thank you!!!
