Hello!
I'm creating a dashboard that shows the amount of time employees spend on tasks. I would like to add a column to the dashboard matrix that shows the percent of time spent on each task/code by an employee. The issue I am having is that when the page is filtered by fiscal year the sum of time changes and I am unable to solve this with the queries. Is there a way I can structure a measure to accomplish this? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Hi @CorySOAH ,
you can create a visual calculations to acheive this based on the output you want.to create a visual calcuation select the matrix visual,click on New Visual Calculations button under Home tab and create calulations below:
Percent of parent = FORMAT(
DIVIDE(
[Sum of Time],
SUMX(
WINDOW(
1,ABS,-1,ABS,ROWS,PARTITIONBY([Name])),[Sum of Time])
,0)
,"0.00%")The above calculation output looks like below:
As shown above , it will show the percentage of time spent by a user(if all entries are added for user Kelly,Jane it will sum up to 100 %)
