Hi,
I have 2 measures for cumulative lines, one for the ACTUAL, one the FORECAST
Cumul Actual =
CALCULATE (COUNT(MASTER[Document Reference]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Date]<=MAX('MASTER'[Date]));
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Status Date]="Issued"))
Cumul Forecast =
CALCULATE (COUNT(MASTER[Document Reference]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Date]<=MAX('MASTER'[Date]));
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Status Date]="Forecast"))And t works fine when I display them in a visual:
But I need to display the % in the Y axis.
Note: pencent is the sum of ACTUAL and FORECAST.
Anybody knows how it could be set up ?
Thanks in advance because I'm lost.
Regards,
CR
Solved! Go to Solution.
solved!
I've created additional measures to better understand what I need:
One measure cumuating the values Issued
Cumul Issued =
CALCULATE (COUNT(MASTER[Document Reference]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Engineering Progress]="Issued");
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Date]<=MAX('MASTER'[Date])))One measure cumulating the values Issued and Not Issued (Forecast) (<> "")
Cumul Issued + Forecast =
CALCULATE (COUNT(MASTER[Document Reference]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Engineering Progress]<>"");
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Date]<=MAX('MASTER'[Date])))One measure counting all the references (100%)
Cumul - ALL =
CALCULATE (COUNT(MASTER[Document Reference]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED('MASTER');'MASTER'[Engineering Progress]<>""))
Then, I created 2 main measures.
One measure cumulating the issued + forecast as percentage
Cumul issued + forecast = [Cumul issued + forecast]/[Cumul - ALL]
One measure cumulating the issued as percentage
Cumul issued = [Cumul issued]/[Cumul - ALL]
Then:
- I applied the format Percentage to these 2 main measures
- I put these 2 main measures in the visual
- I actived the option Show Secondary (Y-axis block)

hi, @CR
Do you mean that add a new measure
measure=[Cumul Actual] / [Cumul Forecast]
and then drag it into visual?
If so, [Cumul Actual] and [Cumul Forecast] value is so big but percent value will be very small, It will looks like this:
I suggest you use Line and Column Mixed chart, drag percent value as a column value.
If not your case, please share some sample data with the expected output.
Best Regards,
Lin
@CR what you mean by sum, isn't the % is actual divided by forecast?

Indeed @parry2k but I don't know how to update correctly the measure and / or how to use it in the visual...
