I have below data.
Items 1-5 were sold and the cost of them are splitted with below ratio by categories and brands. The last 2 columns are the working steps and the values are look up from Table 2 & 3 with calculated formula set. Cost Split (in USD) is the total cost * cost split ratio * exchange rate.
I wanna create a measure in Power BI which calculates the ratio of cost split by brands and cost split by categories, i.e. sum of total cost split by brands / sum of total cost split by categories, and the results will be shown in Pivot Table format (Table 4). For example, the ratio of Brand E in Cat A is 6 / 11 = 54.5%. How to set the measure to get the result in Power BI Pivot Table?
Table 1 Cost Split of Item Sold
Item | Category | Brand | Cost Split Ratio | Currency | Cost Split (in USD) |
Item 1 | Cat A | Brand D | 0.50 | HKD | 5.00 |
Item 1 | Cat A | Brand E | 0.30 | HKD | 3.00 |
Item 1 | Cat B | Brand F | 0.20 | HKD | 2.00 |
Item 2 | Cat B | Brand F | 0.40 | JPY | 4.80 |
Item 2 | Cat C | Brand D | 0.60 | JPY | 7.20 |
Item 3 | Cat A | Brand E | 0.20 | USD | 3.00 |
Item 3 | Cat C | Brand F | 0.10 | USD | 1.50 |
Item 3 | Cat B | Brand D | 0.70 | USD | 10.50 |
Item 4 | Cat C | Brand E | 0.20 | CNY | 1.60 |
Item 4 | Cat B | Brand E | 0.80 | CNY | 6.40 |
Item 5 | Cat C | Brand F | 1.00 | KRW | 11.00 |
Table 2 Total Cost of Items Sold
Item | Currency | Cost |
Item 1 | HKD | 77.7 |
Item 2 | JPY | 1262.52 |
Item 3 | USD | 15 |
Item 4 | CNY | 55.6 |
Item 5 | KRW | 13101.77 |
Table 3 Exchange Rate
Currency | Exchange Rate |
HKD | 7.77 |
USD | 1 |
CNY | 6.95 |
KRW | 1191.07 |
JPY | 105.21 |
Table 4
Cat A | Cat B | Cat C | |
Brand D | 45.5% | 44.3% | 33.8% |
Brand E | 54.5% | 27.0% | 7.5% |
Brand F | 0.0% | 28.7% | 58.7% |

Hi @trinachung
Create a measure
Measure =
SUM ( Table1[cost split usd] )
/ CALCULATE (
SUM ( Table1[cost split usd] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( Table1 ),
Table1[Category]
= MAX ( Table1[Category] )
)
)

Thanks for the solution, Maggie!
New columns in table 1
Total cost = maxx(filter(table2,table1[item]=table2[item] && table2[Currency] = table1[Currency]),table2[Cost])
exchange rate =maxx(filter(table3,table3[Currency] = table1[Currency]),table3[Exchange Rate])
Cost Split (in USD) = [Total cost] * [cost split ratio] * [exchange rate]
Appreciate your Kudos.
