Of this data set. 9 are white. If I than filter on closed 5 are white. Hence 5/9 55.5% are White closed.
I want this to show in a report table.

 

Column headers:

Colour, Filtered Colour Count, Unfiltered Colour Count, Filtered as % of Unfiltered Colour Count.

Thanks Smoupre. That helped me figure it out. 

Solution:

MyMeasure= COUNTA(Data[Colour[) / CALCULATE( COUNTA(Data[Colour]) , ALL(Data[Open/ Closed]))

You would probably be better off with a measure instead of custom columns, something like:

 

MyMeasure = COUNTA([Colour])/CALCULATE(COUNTA([Colour]),ALL(Table))

Then, as you filter in your report by color or status or if you put this in a matrix, the measure will calculate out correctly.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thanks Smoupre. That helped me figure it out. 

Solution:

MyMeasure= COUNTA(Data[Colour[) / CALCULATE( COUNTA(Data[Colour]) , ALL(Data[Open/ Closed]))
