How to get a percentage column in matrix table

Hi Community,

 

I want have a matrix which shows the number of people that have completed training. It is broken down by division, sub division, practice, and gives a headcount for the practice. I also want to show the percentage of people who have completed training in each practice, sub division and vision.

 

When I add the % completion to my matrix, the practices are correct but the division and subdivision % are a sum of the practice %, which is inaccurate. The % for division should be grand total completed / grand total headcount. The % completed for sub division should be sub total completed / sub total headcount. See right hand table Figure 2.

 

Figure 1 shows my data from excel:

Hi @LiamReidy ,

 

You could refer to the following measure:

Measure =
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[Practice] ),
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Percentage] ),
    DIVIDE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Completed] ), SUM ( 'Table'[headcount] ) )
)
