    Hi There,

     

    You should understand the difference between the Measure and Calculated Column. The Calculation you are trying to achieve is more suitable for calculated column and that's why showing an error for the measure calculation.

     

    For measure, You should try SUMX.

     

    measure:=SUMX(list,list[TURNOVER]*5)

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    Bhavesh

I'm calculating measure sales/sum(sales) in DAX and getting the 'single value cannot be determined' error.

Sales % of Total = CALCULATE(DIVIDE('table_name'[Sales],SUM('table_name'[Sales]))

Can anyone help me out in solving this?

 

Thanks

      We have sales column where I want to calculate percentage of sales with the total sales.
      So calculation goes like this: sales/total(sales) * 100

        Hi,

         

        The solution will depend upon what you drag to the row labels section of your visual.
