Hi,
Im trying to get the impact of my survey mix to the percent to goal total using a measure.
But i always end up hitting the survey mix on the same row/line of the current PTG value instead of the total.
In Excel it would normally be calculated like this
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Lobs
To get the "cell locked" like you would in Excel for the total (i.e. if total was in A1 you would use $A$1), you need to tell Power BI to ignore all filters in your measure. You can use the below:
_mImpact =
VAR _1 = SUM ('Table'[PTG NPS] )
VAR _2 = CALCULATE ( SUM ('Table'[% Survey Mix] ) , ALL ('Table' ) )
VAR _3 = DIVIDE ( _1 , _2 )
RETURN
_3
I've attached a PBIX for further assistance as well.
Thanks,
Theo

Thank you, ill give this a try, however my SurveyMix and PTG NPS are measures would the approach be the same?
@Lobs yeah, should be the same logic just change the SUM (...) to the [measure]. Everything else should be good. If it doesn't work, I'll send through solution when I'm in front of computer next.
Cheers,
Theo

Finally, i can sleep 🙂 the ignoring filters paved the way, appreciate it
@Lobs glad it worked out! All the best! Theo
