Division in Model
I have created a new measure like this:
Using your existing measure [ArchiveTotal]:
NewMeasure = VAR usedAmount_ = SUM(Summaries[UsedAmount]) RETURN DIVIDE(usedAmount_, [ArchiveTotal])Please accept the solution when done and consider giving a thumbs up if posts are helpful.

Hi Markzolotoy ,
Column names alone cannot be displayed in the measure, you need to bring the column names into the formula, you can try the following code:
_ FreeAmount=divide(sum(Summaries[FreeAmount]),[ArchiveTotal])
_ UsedAmount=divide(sum(Summaries[UsedAmount]),[ArchiveTotal])
Best Regards!

Hi Markzolotoy
What do you mean by "two other columns are not even available"
Can you show the exact code you are using to calculate the percentages? And the result you are getting vs the desired one?
Showing a sample of the table(s) would also help

AlB Here is my table:
I want to create a new measure = UsedAmount * 100 / ArchiveTotal
where ArchiveTotal =
ArchiveTotal = SUMX(Summaries, Summaries[FreeAmount] + Summaries[UsedAmount])When I use DIVIDE function intellisense shows ArchiveTotal, but not other numeric columns.Using your existing measure [ArchiveTotal]:
NewMeasure = VAR usedAmount_ = SUM(Summaries[UsedAmount]) RETURN DIVIDE(usedAmount_, [ArchiveTotal])Please accept the solution when done and consider giving a thumbs up if posts are helpful.
