Hello!
I am trying to make a Pareto chart in PowerBI for some ticket analysis however I am having some difficulties. Ive watched a couple youtube videos however they dont seem to apply well to the datasets I have so Im hoping I could have some assistance.
I have a table with 3 Columns, Ticket #, Ticket Category, ResolutionCode and im trying to do the pareto analysis with the ticket category.
Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous,
Attached please find a sample pbix, that I believe will get you what you are looking for:
Steps:
- Create a summary table for your pareto analysis
- include counts and deterministic ranking column
- create a cummulative % measure, that divides the rolling sum by the total count of tickets.
Calc table, columns and measures all included in the pbix.
results in
hope this heps you out

@Anonymous , Assuming you are using count ot #ticket and axis is ticket category
then a measure as a line in clustered line visual
measure = calculate(count(Table[#ticket]), filter(allselected(Table), [ticket category] = max([ticket category])) )
Hi!
Thank you for this, I was able to add the measure as a line however do you know if it is possible to show the percentages on the line for the Pareto Analysis?
