Data label percentage of bar total

Hello, 

 

I need help with creating a  stacked bar / column chart with data labels showing percentages of the bar / column total and not the total for the entire chart. We also need to have the height / length of the bar / column reflect the absolute value.  Our data is structured in a way similar to: 

 

Serial NumberSizeReturned?
145

Yes

245No
344Yes
445Yes
546No
646No
745No
845No
947Yes
1044No

 

The bar chart has "Size" in the Y-axis and count of "Serial Number" in the X-axis. The "Returned?" field is added as a legend. The desired outpoot should like:

Ideally, we will have the percetage as a data label, but having it in tooltips would also be acceptable. 

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi @naskoiliev ,

I created a sample pbix file(see the attachment), please check if that is what you want.

Percentage = 
VAR _part =
    COUNT ( 'Table'[Serial Number] )
VAR _psize =
    CALCULATE (
        COUNT ( 'Table'[Serial Number] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ),
            'Table'[Size] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Size] )
        )
    )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( _part, _psize )

Thanks so much for the help and detailed info!

 

It's not quite I wanted as the bars now add to 100% and don't show the absolute value. However, I swapped the Y-axis and Tooltips measures, and now I have a workable result. I would have preferred to have the percentages as data labels rather than as tooltips, but this gets the job done as well. 

 

Thanks again!
