Hi all,
I have a simple data table with retailers, categories and values.
Now I want to display the relative ratio of retailers in each category by selecting a category.
The calculated values in a matrix are correct.
In a combination chart, a line is needed for the average.
I can do this in Excel, but fail in Power BI ☹️
Can anyone help me?

Hi, @MBreden
You can try the following methods.
Measure =
Var _N1=[TT Sum]
Var _N2=CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Value]),FILTER(ALL(Data),[Retailer]=SELECTEDVALUE(DimRetailer[Retailer])))
Return
DIVIDE(_N1,_N2)
Average =
Var _Sum1=CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Value]),FILTER(ALL(Data),[Category]=MAX(DimCategory[Category])))
Var _Sum2=CALCULATE(SUM(Data[Value]),ALL(Data))
Return
DIVIDE(_Sum1,_Sum2)
Result:
Is this the result you expect?

Hi @v-zhangti ,
I managed to add the measurements to my original file.
As the values in the categories are very different, I need the maximum of the retailers in the selected category to scale the Y-axis.
I hope you or another DAX professional can help me with the calculation?
Many thanks!
Hi @v-zhangti
thanks for the measures, this already looks very good 😊
For the axes scaling I will try to create measures.
Best Regards
Melanie
