Consider the following table with tasks per user.
Username | Task Name | Status |
User1 | Task1 | Completed |
User1 | Task2 | Incomplete |
User1 | Task3 | Completed |
User2 | Task1 | Completed |
User2 | Task2 | Completed |
User2 | Task3 | Completed |
I have a measure that calculates the percentage of Tasks completed per user that looks like this:
Measure Percentage Completion Per User =
var TasksCompleted =
SUMX(
VALUES('Table'[Username]),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Task Name]),'Table'[Status]="Completed"))
)
var TasksIncomplete =
SUMX(
VALUES('Table'[Username]),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Task Name]),'Table'[Status]="Incomplete"))
)
RETURN
TasksCompleted/TasksIncomplete+TasksCompleted
The result is:
User1: 66.6%
User2: 100%
This all works well until I attempt to then use the above measure to create percentage brackets.
Say, how many users have 80%-100% completion, how many have 60%-80% completion, etc.
I tried to create a measure for each bracket like this but it doesn't return the correct result:
CompletionBracket%80-100 = calculate(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Username]),filter('Table',[Measure Percentage Completion Per User]>=0.8 && [Measure Percentage Completion Per User]<=1))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @WorkHard
For "Percentage Completion Per User" try this:
Percentage Completion Per User =
VAR _User =
COUNTROWS ( 'Table' )
VAR _Complete =
CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Status] = "Completed" )
RETURN
_Complete / _User
and for "CompletionBracket%80-100" try this:
CompletionBracket%80-100 =
VAR _A =
FILTER (
SUMMARIZE (
'Table',
'Table'[Username],
"PerCom", [Percentage Completion Per User]
),
[Percentage Completion Per User] >= 0.8
&& [Percentage Completion Per User] <= 1
)
RETURN
COUNTAX ( _A, [Username] )
the output:

@WorkHard You need to get your users and ADDCOLUMNS your measure in a table variable. Then you can filter that table variable and COUNTROWS on in it. Like:
Measure 80-100 =
VAR __Table =
ADDCOLUMNS(
DISTINCT('Table'[Username]),
"__Measure",[Measure Percentage Completion Per User]
)
RETURN
COUNTROWS(FILTER(__Table,[__Measure]>=.8 && [__Measure]<=1))
