Total row Straight table Percentage% calculation

Hello,

I have the below in my application, its a straight table and i am displaying the Top 10 values for Groups.

And the Total row should display the Top 10 Sum values for the YTD, PY YTD, Var and Var%.

I can use Sum of Rows for the first 3 columns, but not for the % column which will give me the wrong result. I tried using the expression total, but not right result. Any suggestion would be helpful.

Thanks.

Try

If(Dimensionality() = 0,
(Sum(TOTAL SalesYTD)-Sum(TOTAL PYYTD))/(Sum(TOTAL SalesYTD
)),
(Sum(SalesYTD)-Sum(PYYTD))/(Sum(SalesYTD
)))

Would you be able to provide raw data behind the above output. I feel that it would be easier to propose something knowing how the data looks.

I might not be able to share the Raw data here, but can tell you that, it is daily transaction data and i am calculating YTD and PY YTD using set analysis. Please let me know what kind of information you are looking for.

I have understood your suggestion now, took some time and research to get a clear picture

My problem here is that I have restricted the values displayed to the first 10 using Dimension Limits, so using TOTAL will get the overall value and not for the 10 values displayed. Is there a way to relate the TOTAL with the values displayed?
