## KPI results in " - "

I'm trying to calculate the percentage hours toward monthly goal.  Separately, I've confirmed that my numerator and denominator give me the desired results, but when I try to divide the numerator by the denominator, I get " - " in my KPI.  The calculation is:

Sum(if(BUDGET_MONTH_CAL=MONTH(TODAY()),duration/60)))/if(BUDGET_MONTH_CAL=MONTH(TODAY()), BUDGET_AMT_PROG)

Should I be calculating this percentage?

May be try this:

Sum({<BUDGET_MONTH_CAL = {"\$(=Month(Today()))"}>} duration/60)/Only({<BUDGET_MONTH_CAL = {"\$(=Month(Today()))"}>} BUDGET_AMT_PROG)

Hi Sunny - Thank you very much for responding.  Unfortunately, same result, though.

What values do you get for them individually? Is it a very small number divided by a huge number? (10/10000?) May be we just need to format it correctly to view it.

Current numbers are 195 / 925.  I have the formatting set to custom at ##%.

try like this?

num((Sum({<BUDGET_MONTH_CAL={'=\$(=MONTH(TODAY()))'}>} duration)/60)

/

Sum({<BUDGET_MONTH_CAL={'=\$(=MONTH(TODAY()))'}>} BUDGET_AMT_PROG)),'#,##0%')

Note: Make sure BUDGET_MONTH_CAL should have numeric value as Month() will return 1,2,3,4 etc

Hi Balraj - No luck with that.  One thing I did just test is if I entered the actual value for the denominator vs. the calculated numerator and vice versa.

If I enter the actual numerator and calc the denominator, I get "-".

If I calc the numerator and enter the actual denominator, I get the desired results.

Not sure if that means anything.

Can you change the formatting to regular number formatting and see if you see 0.21

It means your actual denominator part of expression is not working?

It's not working when I combine it with the numerator, but when each of them stands alone, they are fine.
