Percentage Calculation & Sumumarization
- Anonymous4 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
Calculated column couldn't show dynamic aggregation value like the sum of column 1 divided by the sum of column 2. You see if you create [%Spent] as a calcualted column, it will show you sum/max/ do not sum/ and so on based on the column result. You can try to create a measure to achieve your goal.
Measure % Spent = DIVIDE(SUM('Orders'[Amount Expended]),SUM( 'Orders'[Overall Limit]))Result is as below.

Here is some sample data. This is what the line items look like. I've selected summarize so I get one line item per order. I get the correct totals for the Amount Expended and Amount Available. The problem is the percentage column, it's adding all of the line items and giving me 2602.78% instead of the percent 87.4% that I'm expecting.
