Power Query: How do i display the name of columns in an axis and use their values ?

‎05-27-2021 06:37 AM

Hello,

 

I need to make a graph as shown bellow that represents the reasons of delays; as an axis there are the names of columns and as a value it is the percentage represented by the number of "Y" in each column divided by the number of "Y" in the "Delayed" column.

 

How can i represent this in power bi ?

 

Thanks in advance

I assume that a project is delayed as soon as any one of the reasons is Y; so that the "Delayed" column isn't necessary.

Unpivot the above dataset for DAX calculation,

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
