Create Clustered column Chart

[kodnil2020]

Hello, 

I am new to Power BI and still needs to learn few things. Appreciate your help here. 

I have 2 tables:

Table 1:  Employee Grades with Department

Table 2:  Active/Inactive employees

Ask: Create Clustered coumn chart of Active employees

D & Above			75%
C			25%
B		66.66%
A	100%	33.33%
	Dept1	Dept2	Dept3

Sample Data:

Table 1: 

Department	Grade	ID
Dept1	A1	11
Dept1	A2	12
Dept2	A1	13
Dept2	B1	14
Dept2	B2	15
Dept3	C1	16
Dept3	D1	17
Dept3	D2	18
Dept3	E1	19
Dept3	C1	20
Dept2	D1	21

Table 2:  

ID	Active
11	1
12	1
13	1
14	1
15	1
16	1
17	1
18	1
19	1
20	0
21	0

Hi @kodnil2020 ,

We can use the following steps to meet your requirement.

1. We assume that the two tables have a relationship based on [ID].

2. Then we can create a measure.

active person count = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 2'[ID]),FILTER('Table 2','Table 2'[Active]=1))

Or this measure is also right.

active sum = CALCULATE(SUM('Table 2'[Active]))

If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show the exact expected result based on the table that you have shared?

Yes. 2 tables are connected.

This is what i am looking for:

For all departments show clustered chart:

1. X axis: departments

2. Y Axis: percentage of Active Grades

Group all "A" grades and find percentage based on active employees

Group all "B" grades and find percentage based on active employees

Group all "C" grades and find percentage based on active employees 

Group all "D & Above" grades and find percentage based on active employees

Sample graph & percentage calculation below:

Hi @kodnil2020 ,

We can create a column and a matrix table to meet your requirement.

1. Create a calculate column to sort Grade.

Legend = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"A"),"A",
    CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"B"),"B",
    CONTAINSSTRING('Table 1'[Grade],"C"),"C","D & Above")

Then we can create a measure and put the column to legend in Clustered Column Chart.

Measure = 
var _x = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 1'[ID]),FILTER('Table 2','Table 2'[Active]=1))
var _y = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table 1'[ID]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table 2'),'Table 2'[Active]=1),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table 1'),'Table 1'[Department]=MAX('Table 1'[Department])))
return
DIVIDE(_x,_y)

If you have any question, please kindly ask here and we will try to resolve it.

I am getting below error:

"DAX comparison operations do not support comparing values of type Text with values of type Integer. Consider using the VALUE or FORMAT function to convert one of the values."

In your screen shot there are 4 filters {}, dept, legend, measure. Which one is first filter?

Hi @kodnil2020 ,

Please check what type of field Table 2[active] is. Please change the active column to Whole number type and try again.

@kodnil2020 - Assuming that your tables are related on ID, you should just have to add Active column to your Filters pane and set it to 1.

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

And you did really well on that front! 🙂
