Relative Total and Subtotal Values

[Anonymous]

Hello All,

I have been stuck on this pickle of a problem for quite some time. 

I would like to get the relative subtotal (and total) of the "% Gross Price Change" measure, at the most granular level.

In the below example the subtotal would equate to:

 (0.1401 * (6637.82 / 6637.82 + 1864.19 + 13157.47) + 0.2303 * (1864.19 / 6637.82 + 1864.19 + 13157.47) + 0.1798 * (13157.47 / 6637.82 + 1864.19 + 13157.47 )) = 0.171 or 17,1

i.e each row where price change is available, "% Gross Price Change" / SUM of "CY Norm Gross Sales". 

I suspect I will have to create an additional measure here but I am hoping someone has come across something like this before.

Any help is much appreciated. I understand this is a convoluted explanation, if there are further details required I am happy to provide them. It is also worth noting that both of these columns are themselves a combination of other measures.

All the best,

Luke

@Anonymous This looks like a measure totals problem. Very common. See my post about it here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/DAX-Commands-and-Tips/Dealing-with-Measure-Totals/td-p/63376

@Greg_Deckler Thanks for the reply. I have read up diligently on measure totals and the common problems there. This is a slightly different problem in that the totals are not a straightforward "Summing" or average etc. 

The triple threat solution may be on the right track. I will sift through and come back to you! 

Thanks again,

Luke

@Anonymous Looking at your formula more closely, perhaps something like the following:

  VAR __Table = FILTER(SUMMARIZE(ALL('Table'),[Profit Center],[2nd Column],[3rd Column],[4th Column],[% Gross Price Change],"__CYNormGS",SUM('Table'[CY Norm Gross Sales])),[% Gross Price Change] <> BLANK())
  VAR __Sum = SUMX(__Table,[__CYNormGS])
  VAR __Table1 = ADDCOLUMNS(__Table,"__Sum%GPChange",__Sum)
  VAR __Table2 = ADDCOLUMNS(__Table1,"__Value",[% Gross Price Change] * [__Sum%GPChange])
RETURN
  SUMX(__Table2,[__Value])
