dividing the sum of one column by a fixed number

Hello,

I would need a help for this calculation. Here below an example of data.

I have to divide the sum of column “workload” by a fixed number “1680”.

Column “workload” is the result of multiplication by columns “standard time”, “# activities”, # FTEs”.

How can I do?

 

Department

Activities

Standard Time

# activities

# FTEs

Workload

Hey @VC1508 ,

 

if you want to have it depending by other filters, you can just use the following DAX measure:

Workload Divided =
DIVIDE (
    SUMX (
        myTable,
        myTable[Standard Time] * myTable[# activities] * myTable[# FTEs]
    ),
    1680
)

 

If you always want to calculate if for the whole table you can use the following measure:

Workload Divided =
DIVIDE (
    SUMX (
        ALL( myTable ),
        myTable[Standard Time] * myTable[# activities] * myTable[# FTEs]
    ),
    1680
)

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
