Good morning,
I'm stuck in a seemingly easy problem, illustrated below:
I have two linked tables:
I'm trying to calculate the % of TV and Cinema in a bar chart with a slicer for choosing Country. If I use Count as % of GT in the second table only, it gives me a wrong number because it takes into account all rows, where Respondents are duplicated (as it is unpivoted).
I then tried the following formula: %Value=COUNTA('Tab2'[Value]) / CALCULATE(Sum('Tab1'[Count]),ALL('Tab1') but this returns the correct results for the total sample, but wrong results when I start slicing by Country (because the Sum of Count remains constant so it always divides by the total sample.
To illustrate, this is what I'm trying to achieve:
I tried a lot of variations of the formula above, but never got it work for both Total sample and by country. What am I missing?
Any help much appreciated!
George
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous,
Please modify your measure as below:
%Value = COUNTA ( 'Tab2'[Value] ) / CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Tab1'[Count] ), ALLEXCEPT ( 'Tab1', Tab1[Country] ) )

Thank you very much Yuliana!
Your solution did the trick (+ getting rid of a two-way relationship between my tabs!)
George.
