Display a count of text as a percentage but not of the grand total

Hi,

 

I'm trying to show a comparison of employee type(new starts/non new starts) hitting their target over a period of time. 

 

Example data

OutcomeEmployee typeDate

Below

New Start

18 March 2022
AboveNew Start18 March 2022
On TargetNon New Start18 February 2022
BelowNon New Start18 February 2022
On TargetNew Start18 January 2022

 

I have created 2 measures to calculate the new starts and non new starts and have the date linked to a calendar table. However in my visualization i can only choose the option of a count/countdistinct or percentage of the grand total.

 

I want to show the data as a month by month graph with a percentage value for the employee type achieving the outcome for each month.

 

Anyone able to help with calculating a measure for this?

Hi,

 

So I would expect my results to look like this but with the percentage calculations for the month

When I've calculated it manually I would get these % figures. I want these as a data label rather than the count I have now.

non new starts
on target 55%
below 20%
above 9%

new starts
on target 6.7%
below 6.7%
above 1.3%

 

The graph is correct I just can't figure out how to get the data labels to show as a percentage for the month rather than the grand total.
