Percentage cost vs budget

Hi All

 

I need to add in a measure to find out the percentage of cost vs budget as below:

 

FYSub UnitBudgetCost% Cost vs Budget
22/23A100050050%
22/23B100020020%
22/23C200050025%
22/23D300060020%

 

The budget and cost are stored in two seperate tables: Table 1[Budget], and Table 2[Cost].  Please could anyone help to tell me how to work out and add in the new measure '% Cost vs Budget'.  Many thanks.

Hi @Apple08 ,

In order to better understand your demands and give the right solution, could you please provide some more specific information? such as your desensitized example data and a screenshot of your desired results?

Thanks for your efforts & time in advance.

Thanks.  The Budget (Table 1) and Cost (Table 2) are seperated, however I can now use SUMX filter DAX to obtain the cost from Table 2 to Table 1 as below:

 

Table 1

FYSub UnitBudgetCost
22/23A1000500
22/23B1000200
22/23C2000500
22/23D3000

600

 

The Desire result is I need to get the column of % Cost vs Budget, which is for Sub Unit A, calculate 500/1000 = 50%, for Sub Unit B 200/1000 = 20% etc as below:

 

FYSub UnitBudgetCost% Cost vs Budget
22/23A100050050%
22/23B100020020%
22/23C200050025%
22/23D300060020%

 

I have tried to add in two measures for the sum of budget and sum of cost, then divide the measures but I am unable to get the desire result.  Please could you help and let me know if anything is unclear.
