Power BI measure to remove a filter

Hi,

 

I am trying to make a measure to calculate a percentage where the nominator would be affected by all of the on page filters (slicers) and the denominator would be affected by 3 out of the 4 slicers. 

i have made a measure calculating the nominator as:

total staff=

countrows('staff')

this accounts for all filters

 

the denominator i created as 

total staff 2 =
calculate(

countrows('staff'),

removefilters('staff')[country])

 

however the total staff 2 removing filters is giving the same number as the total staff when i apply a filter to the country slicer. I would like the percentage to show the staff in a country/by the total staff where i can adjust the date slicer and the percentage will factor this in. My final percentage would use the measure total staff/total staff 2

thank you in advance

Hi @User202 - create a measure that calculates a percentage where the numerator for staff count table as below:

Measure1:

Total Staff = COUNTROWS('Staff')

 

This measure should ignore the Country filter but consider all other filters. Instead of using REMOVEFILTERS

You can use this measure for denominator

Total Staff Ignoring Country =
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS('Staff'),
ALL('Staff'[Country])
)

create last measure to get the percentage calculation%

 

Percentage Staff by Country =
DIVIDE(
[Total Staff],
[Total Staff Ignoring Country],
BLANK()
)

 

It works. please check

Hi,

 

I have tried the ALL option instead of REMOVEFILTERS and this also does not work. The only solution I have come up with so far is duplicating the table which is not the most ideal solution
