How can I show percentages in a bar chart? Every column sum 100%

I need to show the percentages in every column of a bar chart.

This is my expression:

COUNT({<SampleType={'Tender'}>}DISTINCT [Sampling Order Header ID])

Please help.

manucamon‌ - If this is what is needed, then why not choose relative on the expression tab? I feel that there are 2 dimensions and the OP wants 100% for each column where he might be stacking some bars based on the 2 dimension.

I would say may be something like this if my guess is true above

Count({<SampleType={'Tender'}>}DISTINCT [Sampling Order Header ID])

/Count(TOTAL <1stDimensionHere> {<SampleType={'Tender'}>}DISTINCT [Sampling Order Header ID])

Replace 1stDimensionHere with whatever 1st dimension you are using in the chart.

Hi Melba,

Try this plz.

COUNT({<SampleType={'Tender'}>}DISTINCT [Sampling Order Header ID])

/COUNT(TOTAL {<SampleType={'Tender'}>}DISTINCT [Sampling Order Header ID])

Hi Sunny T,

I don't know the dimensions that Melba has on the chart, If there is only one dimension, with Total is enough, if there are more dimnensions, Melba needs to use your answer.

But how would adding a total give 100% for each column if there is only one dimension?

That is because we need to see the chart and examples to review it.

Agree with sunny. If there is only one dimension then, 100% for each column not possible. There should be two dimensions.

I understand that Melba is showing 100% actually, and needs real %.

I guess we need to wait and watch for OP's response before we discuss this any further
