Percentage column issues

Disclaimer: I am new to power BI and currently trying to teach myself (2 days in) so please excuse and ignorance.

 

I have a table where I need to workout the adherence % using 2 columns, the issue I am facing is the columns in the data source are Text or blank values (Operating similar to the binary 1s and 0s). The table gathers all the records from a user and uses the count option to show the amounts. The issue I have is when I use Count of / total if gives me %s over 100, for example 2/2 will be 200% and so forth.

 

Columns from the data source:

 

Functions on the columns:

 

The table:

 

Is there any way to make the adherence formula use the visuals columns and not the data source as this works perfectly fine in excel.

  • Hi,

    Thsose should be writen as measures (not as calculated columns).  Also, replace the / with the DIVIDE() function.
