Hello,
I am trying to create a variable - 2600PPM which is a basically a division from two sub tables i created. I used the following DAX command -
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @mallap849
If you cannot get @amitchandak's to work, try to break it down one step further by creating two independent sum measures, followed by the divide. For example:
1. Sum 1 = SUM ( Table1[Column] )
2. Sum 2 = SUM ( Table2[Column] )
3. Divide = DIVIDE ( [Measure 1] , [Measure 2] , 0 )
Your output should be like below:
Importantly, ensure your column format is value (i.e. Whole Number / Decimal).
Hope this helps.

@mallap849 , The link you posted above will not work.
Yoir calculation should work across common dimesion
2600 PPM = Divide(SUM('VP-Warehouse Exp'[2600CC Exp]),SUM(Mileage[2600 Series]) )
If this does not help
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

Hi @amitchandak ,
I have tried to reattach the file and I used the formula -
