Create bins and use bin in bar chart
I have created a calculated column:
Category Sales Bin = (IF(Orders[Sale%]>0 && Orders[Sale%]<=0.06, "0% - 6%",
IF(Orders[Sale%]>0.06 && Orders[Sale%]<=0.14,"7% - 14%",
IF(Orders[Sale%]>0.14 && Orders[Sale%]<=0.21,"14% - 21%",
IF(Orders[Sale%]>0.21,"> 21%" )))))
sale% is also a calcualted column which is calculating percentage and is in decimal format.
Now Category Sales Bin is showing "0% - 6%" for all the values
For 13.01 or 12.68 it is showing "0% - 6%".
Why it is showing for all same value .
also i want to use this bin in bar chart and study sale% distribution bin wise

Looking at the pbix, I think you already know the answer. The Sales% in the table visual is an aggregation of the numeric column but the Category Sales Bin 3 is a text field which is not going to aggregate.
Sales% summed actually does make sense in the data but we have to be very careful adding up percentages normally.
One solution is to create SUM(sales%) as a measure and create the bucket calculation as a measure which refers to it. I think you would have to use a variable to store the SUM(sales%) and then use that variable in the rest of the measure. Don't overcomplicate it.
You will need Product SubCategory in the visual to provide the correct context
Good luck.

Hi @Anonymous ,
The cause is just like what @HotChilli said.
Please create a Measure like so:
Category Sales Bin =
VAR Sum_Sales =
SUM ( Orders[Sale%] )
RETURN
(
IF (
Sum_Sales > 0
&& Sum_Sales <= 0.06,
"0% - 6%",
IF (
Sum_Sales > 0.06
&& Sum_Sales <= 0.14,
"7% - 14%",
IF (
Sum_Sales > 0.14
&& Sum_Sales <= 0.21,
"14% - 21%",
IF ( Sum_Sales > 0.21, "> 21%" )
)
)
)
)
Best Regards,
