Help with summing alternative columns
Hello everyone,
Thanks in advance for your help. The last row is the formula that needed to be calculated. Any help is apprecaited.
| Neg | Neg Percent Of Total Tested | Pending | Pending Percent Of Total Tested | Pos | Pos Percent of Total Tested | Pos Percent Of Known Results | Total tested | |
| Test 1 | 2334 | 49.02 | 165 | 3.47 | 2262 | 47.51 | 49.22 | 4761 |
| Test 2 | 228 | 47.01 | 16 | 3.3 | 241 | 49.69 | 51.39 | 485 |
| Total | 2562 (B7) | 48.84 | 181 (D7) | 3.45 | 2503 (F7) | 47.71 | 49.42 | 5246 (I7) |
| SUM | Cell B7/I7 (2562/5246) | SUM | Cell D7/I7 (181/5246) | SUM | Cell F7/I7 (2503/5246) | Cell F7/(F7+B7) (2503/2503+2562) | SUM |
hi nanchil
For SUM calculation, you could just drag the field into visual directly,
for Percent measure, you could create this measure as below:
Measure Neg Percent Of Total Tested = DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Neg] ) ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Total tested] ) ) )Measure Pending Percent Of Total Tested = DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Pending] ) ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Total tested] ) ) )Measure Pos Percent Of Known Results = DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Pos] ) ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Pos] ) )+CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Neg])) )Measure Pos Percent of Total Tested = DIVIDE ( CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Pos] ) ), CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Total tested] ) ) )Result:
and here is sample pbix file, please try it.

nanchil , we are not seeing excel cells here, so not very clear.
Can you share sample data and sample output.
