Percentage from Text Columns

I have 2 questions.  I need to create 2 measures from text columns and display as cards ignoring the slicer.

I have a table UPS, it has a Location colum and Maintenance Bypass column (Text) & Dual UPS column (Text).

 

LocationMaintenance BypassDual UPS
city1Yesn/a
city3Yesn/a
city3YesYes
city4Non/a

 

Measure1 = percentage of locations that do not have Maintenance Bypass, ignoring the location slicer selection

Measure2 = percentage of locations that have Dual UPS, ignoring the location slicer selection.

Thnaks in Advance.

Hi @cghanta Try these please 

Measure1 = 
VAR TotalLocations = COUNTROWS(ALL(UPS))
VAR NoMaintenanceBypass = COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(ALL(UPS), UPS[Maintenance Bypass] = "No")
)
RETURN
DIVIDE(NoMaintenanceBypass, TotalLocations, 0) * 100
Measure2 = 
VAR TotalLocations = COUNTROWS(ALL(UPS))
VAR WithDualUPS = COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(ALL(UPS), UPS[Dual UPS] = "Yes")
)
RETURN
DIVIDE(WithDualUPS, TotalLocations, 0) * 100

Hi @Akash_Varuna

for the Measure2, the Maintenance Bypass value has changed from No to Yes for city4, and it is displaying (Blank) value, how can I display it as 0.00 instead.


for the Measure1, how can I exclude a location city1

thank you in advance

the following mesaure works, 

%No Manit Bypass = DIVIDE( CALCULATE( COUNTROWS( UPS ), UPS[Maintenance Bypass] = "Yes" ), COUNTROWS( UPS ) )

how do I add filter to ignore the slicer?  The above is calculating per row, due to the slicer (giving  answer 1 for teh 1st 3 cities), I want it to calculate % for all rows ignoring the slicer (the answer should be 1/4 = .25) and display 25%
