Group Columns Based on Category and Make Table

Hello,

 

I have data in the following format: 

 

sheap069_0-1600276747747.png

And would like to create a table in my report in the following format:

 

 Category 1Category 2
Count 110080
Count 25030
Percentage 150%38%
Count 34040
Percentage 340%50%

 

And this would change based on the slicer selection of the ID. 

 

I am unsure of how to go about this. 

 

Thank you very much.

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Hello

see attached. All this is done in the energy consultation.

1. Take off the data

2. Then divide the columns.

obviously % sign will not apply when you have counts to the same extent, because you cannot mix data types to the same extent.
