Percentage difference on total

Hi all -

 

I have built a matrix in Power BI and want to show a percentage difference between the values by row PY vs TY:

RDF25087_0-1726487975542.png

 

So it looks something like:

20232024Total% Diff.
221191948841607-11.89%
10809823719046-23.79%
18572147400415.62%
347852987264657-14.12%

 

Thanks

RDF

Hi @RDF25087 

You will need a disconnected table and some measures to achieve your use case like below:

You can create a new measure:

% Diff = (TY -PY) / PY


Then you can format it and add it to your matrix visual.

@RDF25087 , Use DAX to create new measure

 

% Diff. =
VAR PY = SUM('YourTable'[PY])
VAR TY = SUM('YourTable'[TY])
RETURN
DIVIDE(TY - PY, PY, 0) * 100
