How to add a percentage of data covered to a chart

[Anonymous]

I think this would be a relatively simple process but am unable to figure it out. I have a donut chart that shows the sum of data from the table below (sample).

ID	Office	Sales	Sales Type
1	NYC	10,000	Online
2	LA	25,000	Store
3	LA	10,000	Online
4	NYC	5,000	Store

My donut chart shows the make up of total sales from Sales Type, and is filtered on the NYC office only.

I want to add a card visual that shows that in this filtered bar chart, 30% of sales is explained. (NYC has 30% of total sales). When I add the sales variable to the card visual and then change it to 

I am trying to add a card type visual that shows that out of all sales, NYC contains 40% of total sales. Currently I am adding a card that shows sum of sales as a percentage of grand total. However, it always just shows 100%.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can create a measure as below to get the percentage, please find the details in the attachment.

Percentage = 
VAR _persales =
    SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] )
VAR _allsales =
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Sales] ), ALL ( 'Table' ) )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( _persales, _allsales )

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It would be helpful to find out the solution.

And it is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community.

Hi @Anonymous,

Create a sales measure that ignores the filter context.

Total Sales = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Sales]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Sales]))

Then for percentage, you create formula that takes [_Sales]/[Total Sales]

Works for you? Mark this post as a solution if it does!
