What kind of data does the KPI visual accept?

Hello all, 

 

I'm trying to create a Goal for a KPI I was asked to make. Management wants it to be "50% of annual deals entered should be won." 

 

I tried making the following measure, but it hit me with the "Can't Display the Visual" error.

 

PERCENTILEX.INC('Steph - Business Update - Houston', 'Steph - Business Update - Houston'[Stage] = "Closed Won", .5)
 
What can I do to make this work? Did I write the DAX correctly based on my requirements?

Hi, @Anonymous ;

You can first look at the usage of PERCENTILEX.INC, PERCENTILEX.INC (<table>, <expression>, <k>)

Where <expression> I understand should be a number type, here 'Steph - Business Update - Houston'[Stage] = "Closed Won" This column should be a number type,however the result of the expression is true or false.

so can you share a simple data and more datails?

Hi @Anonymous 


Your measure isn't working because you need to have something numeric to base the percentile on.

I'm assuming that the value in the KPI visual is count of deals by unit of time.  So the goal/target for the visual should be that count divided by two.  Maybe???  You're not providing a lot of detail to work with.
