I need to calculate the percent complete of tasks assigned to users
Here is what my data looks like:
| User | Task | Status |
| a | 1 | start |
| a | 2 | progress |
| a | 3 | progress |
| a | 4 | complete |
| b | 5 | start |
| b | 6 | start |
| b | 7 | progress |
| c | 8 | complete |
| c | 9 | complete |
What i need is to get a report that shows what percent of tasks they have completed from the ones assigned to them.
| User | Percent Complete |
| a | 25% |
| b | 0% |
| c | 100% |

Here is a solution.
It gets more complex if you want to apply FILTER() to the formula so that person b will show up and you do not need to show all categories. If filtering for Complete, person b will not show up. In the FILTER() case, the Measure is hard coded for Complete.
Here is the measure and a snippet below showing my results using your provided data:
% of Status =
COUNT ( data[Status] ) / CALCULATE (
COUNT ( data[Status] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( data, data[User] )
)
@briodan,
You can create a measure using DAX below.
Pecent complete = DIVIDE(CALCULATE(COUNTA(data[Status]),FILTER(data,data[Status]="complete")),COUNTA(data[Status]))+0
For more details, please review attached PBIX file.

Thanks that is really close to what I need.
I need to only display the Complete status with its value, its ok if users with 0%or blank% show up in the list.
So i guess i need the more complex option.
