Sum of a Measure

Hello,

 

I'm working on Power BI and I am meeting a problem. I created a first measure which calculate the sum of sales by partner :

In this table, I display the top ten of my partners, the total of sale is 100M€. I would like create a second measure which calculate the part of a partner in the total sale (A1 : 6,228,028/100,000,000 = 6.2%). But I don't know howw create a measure which calculate the total sum of sales.

 

Thank you for your help.

Hi @JbPa33 
Use  Calculate and ALL dax functions to remove filters from your partner.

something like :

percent from total = divide (sum('Table'[value]),
calculate (sum('Table'[value]), all('Table'[Partner Sale])))

All - removes all the filters from the partners including "top n" that you using so it will calculate the percent from the grand total as you need.

Hi,

Assuming sale is a measure, write these measures

Sale of top 10 partners = SUMX(TOPN(10,all(Data[partners),[sale],desc),[sale])

Contribution (%) = divide([sale],[Sale of top 10 partners])

Hope this helps.
