Percentages in a Chart
Please see the images below. The first image showing October November and December is how I want the chart to appear in Power BI. The second chart is where I'm currently at (started with the month of October). How do I show the percentages at the top of the bars (or anywhere for that matter)? The third and fourth image is what my data in Power BI looks like.
Hi, BernierWork
Try the methods mentioned by parry2k to achieve almost what you need.
Measure:
Measure = DIVIDE(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Found Jobs]),SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Seeking Work]))If this is not the result you expect, what's your expected result? Could you please provide more details for it?

BernierWork create a measure for % and then use a line and clustered column chart, on line values drop the % measure, and in the formatting pane, change the stroke width to 0, and make sure data labels are turned on. This will do it.

It's the measure I'm unsure of. I've tried a few measures, but I'm missing something. When I do a measure it adds a new column to the chart. parry2k

BernierWork what do you mean new column to the chart? Can you share some screenshots what you have tried so far?
