Pie chart Different results compared to a table

Hi guys,

 

I have a problem.

 

This graph and this table, built whit the same fields show different results for the total.

 

 

How is it possible? I'm struggling to understand.

 

Thank you very much

      I tried to convert the pie chart into a table, it shows the same results as the table.

       

      Moreover, the pie chart shows the same results in terms of number of detections, but the percentage is wrong.

       

      There are no filter applied.

        Hi FinozAndrea ,

         

        Pie-chart shows the percentage value as the "percentage of grand total", which is shown on your table.

        Can you share your .pbix file by removing the sensitive information?

         

        If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂

  • Hi FinozAndrea ,

     

    I tried a pi-chart and a table on my data, the percentages look right to me.

    Can you see try converting your pie-chart to a table and see if it similar to your table visual?

    Also is there any filter on your pie-chart?

      Hi @FinozAndrea ,

       

      It's hard to judge by looking if the relationships are the issue.

      Can you share your .pbix file by removing the sensitive information?

      How are the %'s being put in the Table? Are you using the same column as the whole number and then saying "Show as | Percent of Grand Total" ?

        Greg_Deckler  Exactly

         

         

        I see now that the sum of values in column is not equal to the total of the row. (???) The error is in "VA rilevazioni". I check this manually in excel
