Hi I am struggling with getting the percentages in powerbi. I have seen percentage calculation in columns but not in rows in a matrix table.
In my Excel it looks like this:
I do not know how to calculate the %approved (which is the percentage of total approved from grand total) . is it possible to compute for that and have it as a row and not a column (coz im finding percentage calculation mostly for columns)
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Anonymous,
You may add the following measure.
Measure =
IF (
HASONEVALUE ( Table1[Status] ),
SUM ( Table1[Value] ),
FORMAT (
DIVIDE (
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table1[Value] ), Table1[Status] = "Approved" ),
SUM ( Table1[Value] )
),
"0.00%"
)
)
