I've tried the following measure

Percentage  =
DIVIDE(CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(FactClient[ClientId]);DimAge[AgeCategory]);CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(FactClient[ClientId])))

 

DimAge[AgeCategory] is the category for which I want to calculate the total percentage. Unfortunately, this didn't work because this field is a text, because of the category 65 - older. 

My idea was: do a distinctcount per AgeCategory based on ClientID and divide this by the total distinctcount based on ClientID. The total of this should be 100% (right?). Like I said before, this didn't work because the text field doesn't work in my filter.

 

Do you have any further ideas? My last option is trying to change all the AgeCategories but I want to avoid this.

    Hi RemiAnthonise,

     

    Could you please try to use ALLEXCEPT in your formula? Here the FactClient[column] should be the the column on the X-axis in your visual. If it doesn't work, kindly share your sample data to me.

     

    Percentage  =
DIVIDE(CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(FactClient[ClientId]);DimAge[AgeCategory]);CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(FactClient[ClientId]),ALLEXCEPT(FactClient,FactClient[column])))

    Regards,

    Frank
