    If you directly want a calculated table as an OUTPUT,,, then goto Modelling Tab>>New Table and use this formula

     

    Table =
SUMMARIZE (
    TableName,
    TableName[Person],
    "%age of compliance",
    VAR totalCountforaperson =
        CALCULATE (
            COUNT ( TableName[Person] ),
            ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Person] )
        )
    VAR CountwithYes =
        CALCULATE (
            COUNT ( TableName[Person] ),
            FILTER (
                ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[Person] ),
                TableName[Compliance] = "Yes"
            )
        )
    RETURN
        DIVIDE ( CountwithYes, totalCountforaperson )
)

    Hi Anonymous

     

    The below calculated table will gget you pretty close

     

    New Table = 
    ADDCOLUMNS(
        SUMMARIZECOLUMNS(
            'Table1'[Person],
            "Rows Total",COUNTROWS('Table1') ,
            "Compliant",COUNTROWS(Filter('Table1','Table1'[Compliance]="Yes"))+0
            ),
            "Ratio" , DIVIDE([Compliant],[Rows Total])
            )

HI Anonymous,

 

The +0 just converts a blank cell to a 0 in this case.  Take it out and see. :)

Hi Phil_Seamark, this really works well! I'm actually a beginner in DAX and this technique is really helpful for me specially for future use. Thanks! :smileyhappy:
