Percentage within Percentage

Hi,

 

is there any way i can create Percentage withn Percentage for e.g

 

Group       Percentage

Teacher      5%

Engineer     90%

Programmer 5%

 

if i selected teacher i will show the percentage based on Group Percentage

 

Subgroup                  Percentage

Math Teacher             3%

English Teacher           1.5%

Science Teacher           1.5%

 

I used this first formula in Group

% Value = DIVIDE(SUM(Value),CALCULATE(SUM(Value]),ALL(Group)))

According to your description, you want to calculate the percentage of parent when drilling down to child level. Right? 

 

In this scenario, you have to specify different column as filter in CALCULATE(). It can be like: 

 

% Value =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( Table[SubGroup] ),
    DIVIDE (
        SUM ( Tble[Value] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table[Value] ), ALL ( Table[SubGroup] ) )
    ),
    DIVIDE (
        SUM ( Tble[Value] ),
        CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table[Value] ), ALL ( Table[Group] ) )
    )
)

Please refer to article below:
