Calculated Column: % of Total
So you are saying that you don't want slicer to filter out the total data? In that case, you need to create calculated field.
For that you need to create measure, let's say it is called Total Sales,
Total Sales = CALCUALTE(SUM(Sales[Revenue]), ALL(Sales))
% Revenue = SUM(Sales[Revenue])/[Total Sales]
This is an idea, if you need further help, let me know.
Hi pdemontigny,
You can achieve by creating a new calculated column with following formula,
Premium Dist = DIVIDE(Question[Enforce Premium],SUM(Question[Enforce Premium])).
Let me know, if you have any queries.
There is inbuild feature in PowerBI to calculate the % of Grand Total.
Here is the link to more information https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-may-update-feature-summary/
Take a look at Analytic section

- Quick Calcs – % of grand total
I hope it is helpful.
Thanks,

Thanks for your help. This works, however, I want to add a slicer that allows the user to filter for a specific state - meaning the Inforce Premium volumes would change. Do you know how I could set up the formula so that Premium Dist shows the % of total premium for whatever subset of data the user has filtered for?
