How to calculate % of defect vs production

Hi All,

 

I have a list of a table of defective value / total value by date and factory location. 

In E2, I like to show the result of D10 / D5 , could you please help!

Hi, @paris 

 

Based on the above data, I guess there is an error in the description, E2=D2/D5 instead of D10/D5.

So, try to create a measure like this:

Measure =
VAR _def =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( [Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Date], 'Table'[Factory] ),
            [ltem] = "Defective"
        )
    )
VAR _Total =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( [Value] ),
        FILTER (
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Date], 'Table'[Factory] ),
            [ltem] = "Total"
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF ( MAX ( [ltem] ) = "Total", BLANK (), DIVIDE ( _def, _Total ) 

Result:
