Simplifying Count

I have this table:

1.PNG

 

For each one of these categories, they have their own formulas that all look like this:

1.PNG
2.PNG

 

Which all are displayed on 2 separate graphs like this:

1.PNG

 

Now, what I'm trying to figure out how to do is to simplify this process. It currently works as intended, but I'm sure there's a way to gather these counts and percentages without having to give each category 2 of it's own formulas?

Very likely as you can display an aggregation as "Percent of Grand Total". If you have your groups, why do you need an individual calculation for each category count versus a measure that is simply "Measure = COUNT('Case'[CaseNumber])" The context of the measure in the visualization should relegate this to the correct "Origin" if you have Origin as the Legend for example.
