Help with DAX
Sorry - I should have been a little more clear.
Whatever you want to drive the calculation of the full 100% needs to be in the ALLEXCEPT exclusion.....i.e.:
DIVIDE( [Work Total], CALCULATE( [Work Total], ALLEXCEPT( Table1, Table1[Resource], Table1[Month])), 0)
If you wanted it to be treated differently based on what/if things were filtered, you could use an IF or SWITCH if you had multiple conditions....i.e. IF( ISFILTERED( Table[Column]) or IF( ISCROSSFILTERED( Table[Column]
Isn't there anyone else that can help me out? Just to recap, I have this formula
DIVIDE( [Work Total], CALCULATE( [Work Total], ALLEXCEPT( Table1, Table1[Resource], Table1[Month])), 0)
That gives me the bellow matrix visual:
Country 1 Country 2 country 3
Resource Dept.1 Dept. 2 Dept.3 Dept. 1 Dept.2 Dept.3 Dept.1 Dept.2 Dept.3
John 20 % 20% 20% 40% (=100%)
Jim 40% 20% 30% 10% (=100%)
When I try to filter that for a month though I get something like bellow:
Country 1 Country 2 country 3
Resource Dept.1 Dept. 2 Dept.3 Dept. 1 Dept.2 Dept.3 Dept.1 Dept.2 Dept.3
John 10 % 2% 5% 15% (=32%)
Jim 20% 10% 10% 5% (=45%)
What I want is to have percentages that add up to 100% for each resource no matter how I filter the timeline. That way I will be able to see the distribution of the resources in a specific month, in specific quarter or even yearly.
My original dataset looks like bellow:
Month Resource ResourceDept Work Department Country Work
1/16 John ResDept.1 Dept. 1 Country 1 40
1/16 John ResDept.1 Dept. 2 Country 1 40
1/16 john ResDept.1 40
1/16 Jim ResDept.2 Dept. 2 country 2 40
2/16 Jim ResDept.2 Dept. 1 country 1 40
2/16 John ResDept.1 Dept. 2 country 2 40
Nevermind, I figured it out. I was filtering from the wrong table...
