DIVIDE and PERCENTAGE

Dear community,

 

i'd need your support as i'm trying to do - apparently - a very easy thing but ... i can't 🙂

I have a table loaded with 2 simple measures: count number of trips.

I created another simple measure which is the difference between the two columns.

 

So you see that's super easy.  I would love to add a measure called Delta trip % which is basically the (Trip Actual / Trip Budget ) -1 and % format.

 

I then created this whici partially works

As  you see, % is ok but the same table with new measure is creating :

i) first top blank line

ii) other line "not needed"  such as INDIA and ROMANIA.

Any suggestion ?

 

thank you very much for your great support !

 

 

 

  • PaulMcDk , Try like

     

    divide([Trip Actual] -[Trip Budget] , [Trip Budget] , blank())

     

    or

    if(isblank([Trip Actual] ) || isblank([Trip Budget]), blank(), divide([Trip Actual] -[Trip Budget] , [Trip Budget] , blank()) )
