Remove a data value from a visual but keep the calculation

Hi

 

I am creating a report for a school and will be including one pie chart of all the different registration codes used. I need to inlcude a measure which adds us all the attendance marks (nameed 'All Marks'), if include this measure then all codes %'s are worked out on the chart. I know I could do this with measures for each code but seen as it is only for this is for one visual I wasnt sure if there was an easier way of including the 'All Marks' measure, but hiding it from the pie chart.

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks for your time

Helen

    hellyLoft I guess you are saying if you filter All Marks , % of other categories (ids) are not calculated correctly? Correct? Can you share sample data and expected output?

    Hi, hellyLoft 

     

    I am not very clear about your requirement I assume that you want to calculated the percentage for each code according to the visual interaction. I created data to reproduce your scenario.

    Table:

     

    You may create a measure as below.

    Percentage = 
DIVIDE(
    SUM('Table'[Value]),
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Value]),
        ALLSELECTED('Table')
    )
)

     

    Result:

     

    If i misunderstand your thoughts, please show us some sample data and expected result with OneDrive for business. Thanks.

     

    Best Regards

    Allan
