Using Calculated Measure as a value in a Line Chart
Hello, I have a question about using calculated measure as value in a line chart. In this report, the Acceptance and Yield percentages for different years are calculated manually by dividing total admitted by total applied, and total enrolled by total admitted. It works with matrix, but somehow BI doesn't let me put the measure as values to make a line chart to go with the table. Is there a way to do it?
Nevermind. I realized I used "& "%"" to add % to the numbers in the measure. That was the reason. I fixed it. Thank you!

I must be misunderstanding something, you can use a measure in the Values area of a line chart visualization.

Ah yes, that would turn it into Text and then you are correct, you would not be able to use that in Values, it would want to count it or some such nonsense!
- Does it? Somehow mine is not letting me do it.
