How can I calculate a percentage from a subset of a dimension?

Hello!

I'm a new to the forum and looking for some help with a calculation.  I need to calculate a percentage from a dimension that has 13 fields and want to know how to do so by using specified fields ( i.e. % of gree  from the total of black + green).

My QlikView pivot table depicts a Dimension (Competition Category) with 2 expressions (Number of Awards) and (Award Percentage)

Is there a way to calculate the % of green relative to the total of green + black dots?  I would like to report this KPI as an object within my dashboard.

Thanks for your assistance.

Pat

Hi, Patrick!

You can use a set analysis to solve it:

sum({<[Competition Category]={'Authorized Resale','Brand Name', and so on}>}[Number of Awards])/sum([Number of Awards]).

Hi Patrick!

Use the expression that you use to calculate the green and black indicators in the if clause of the expression.

i.e.

sum({<condition for green>}[Number of Awards])/sum({<condition for green and black>}[Number of Awards]).

Use display values in percentage to get the value in the format you need.

Cheers,
