Converting Weights to Ratio

Hi All,

I have an interesting problem.

There are different models for manufacturers.
The models get some weight in the raw data to add up to 100% for each manufacturer, but finally we don't calculate with all of the models so we have to convert the weights to ratios which keep the ratio between the models, but the sum is 100% in this way too.




 

 

 

 

 

 

How can I get closer to this result?
Thanks in advance,
Zoltan

    Hi Zoltan10 ,

     

    According to your description, refer to the following formula:

    Col_ =
VAR a =
    IF (
        ISBLANK ( 'Table'[Need] ),
        BLANK (),
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( 'Table'[Weight] ),
            FILTER (
                ALL ( 'Table' ),
                'Table'[Manufacturer] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Manufacturer] )
                    && 'Table'[Need] <> BLANK ()
            )
        )
    )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( 'Table'[Weight], a, BLANK () )


    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.


    Best Regards,
    Henry

    Base your measure formulas on ALLSELECTED and that will automatically give you the right percentages.

     

    Please provide sanitized sample data that fully covers your issue. If you paste the data into a table in your post or use one of the file services it will be easier to assist you. I cannot use screenshots of your source data.

    Please show the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided. Screenshots of the expected outcome are ok.
