Convert the value to%
Hi Anonymous,
Agree with @vanessafvg.Your issue is caused by that the Productivity measure returns a value which is greater than 1, when you convert it to percentage in Power BI, the Productivity value will be multiplied by 100 and be displayed with % added. Only when the Productivity measure returns a value which is less than 1, you will get a percentage value within 100%.
If you want to make the current measure return 0.8568, you would need to write the measure using : ((sum (IndicatorValue [Value]) / COUNT (Equipment [Description])))*0.0000001. This way, when you convert it to %, you will get 85.68%. However, I don’t think the above formula makes any sense, as you manually multiply the measure by 0.0000001.

are you sure your data is correct because the numbers seem very high are you able to plot it on a graph, maybe there are some outliers in the data? From what i can tell you are doing the correct calculation but maybe you need to analyse your data to check that all the values are valid. What is the total value and how many machines are you dividing the total value into? can you paste that here? How are you calculating those values?
I only need to know the change in my measure that I have to do to make the value come 0.8568, because from this I can create another measure that will present the value that I expect
