Charticulator vs Matrix - average of the source data

Hi,

it seems that Charticulator calculate the average of the data behind the visuals and not the values of the source data. 

 

Example - 58% is the average of 80% (742/932) and 36% (5971/16622), correct is 38% (=6713/ 17554 (source data).

 

any idea ? Thanks./ H.

Hi @Henrik_99 ,

 

You may try this measure.

Measure = var _cost=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Cost]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[System]))
var _budget=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Budget]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[System]))
return 
IF(ISINSCOPE('Table'[Area]),SUM('Table'[ %]),DIVIDE(_cost,_budget))

I have the subtotals in the matrix showing the mean.

Hi @Henrik_99 ,

 

If you want to get 38%, then your formula has to calculate the numerator of KE plus the numerator of KI, divided by the denominator of KE plus the denominator of KI.

Is it possible to provide some dummy data and expected results?

Hi Stephen,

Here is the expected outcome and dummy data

38% is based on Cost/Budget

Secondly if you drillthough on right bar chart 17 554 it does not give me the expected outcome. However if you rightclick on 80% then it does. Any thoughts?
