Hello all,
I am a new user of power bi and seeking help with some calculations. I have a table with with hierarchy and I am looking for percentage calculations that should change as per my selection, the table is
| Region | Country | School | Campus | Year1 | Year2 |
| Asia | Vietnam | School1 | Campus1.1 | 146 | 84 |
| Asia | Thailand | School2 | Campus2.1 | 213 | 39 |
| Asia | Singapore | School3 | Campus3.1 | 97 | 40 |
| Latam | Brazil | School4 | Campus4.1 | 194 | 41 |
| Europe | Spain | School5 | Campus5.1 | 430 | 69 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.1 | 76 | 32 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.2 | 63 | 16 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.3 | 330 | 53 |
So I am to calculate percentage of change from Year1 to Year 2, I created a column and which results as
| Region | Country | School | Campus | Year1 | Year2 | Percentage(Year1/Year2) |
| Asia | Vietnam | School1 | Campus1.1 | 146 | 84 | 57.5 |
| Asia | Thailand | School2 | Campus2.1 | 213 | 39 | 18 |
| Asia | Singapore | School3 | Campus3.1 | 97 | 40 | 41 |
| Latam | Brazil | School4 | Campus4.1 | 194 | 41 | 21 |
| Europe | Spain | School5 | Campus5.1 | 430 | 69 | 16 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.1 | 76 | 32 | 42 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.2 | 146 | 84 | 57.5 |
| Europe | UK | School6 | Campus6.3 | 213 | 39 | 18 |
When I try to show the above in a visual, campus level works fine however I would like the 'percentage' to work for school level too.
Could you please help with this?

Hi @TejaThammu15 ,
Please create the measure:
Measure = DIVIDE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Year2] ), SUM ( 'Table'[Year1] ) )
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
