Good Morning,
i have a table that includes size information and need to do a basic measure, calculate the percentage per size,
what i ended up doing is pretty amateur, creating a custom column where i sum al size column and then i created individual measures per size dividin the size and the sum
this is how i have the size columns
the individual dax looks like this
is there a better way to do this? i was trying to have them with seperate size table but since these are columns i cant think of another way
thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Juan_AL there is an easy and scalable way:
- transform data
- select all columns except size columns
- right-click, unpivot other columns it will add two columns, attribute, and value, rename these as per your requirement
- close and apply
Write your measure, just one, and you can filter it by any attribute (which is size) you can also view it in pivot form in matrix visual by adding attribute column on columns.
