Calculating percentages within same scope

  • Hi,

    I have a report with a grouping on the GL-account-category and simply shows the sum(amount) for that category.

    One of the categories is "Net Sales".

    What I would like to achieve is the sum(amount) for all other individual categories as a percentage of the sum(amount) of category "Net Sales". The point is that all categories reside in the same grouping (scope).

    So, as an example, the percentages that I would like to have:

    Category "Net Sales": 100% (= 100k)

    Category 2: 60% (asuming that sum(amount) of this category is 60k; divided by 100k = 60%)

    Category 3: 25% (sum(amount) = 25k; divided by 100k = 25%)

    Category 4: 5% (sum(amount) = 5k; divided by 100k = 5%)

    etc. etc.

    Hopefully someone can help me out.

    Thanks!

    The challenge here is that you haven't provided any kind of details. In order to help we will need a few things:

    1. Sample DDL in the form of CREATE TABLE statements

    2. Sample data in the form of INSERT INTO statements

    3. Expected results based on the sample data

    Attached is a screenshot (from Excel) what I would like to achieve.

    Also a screenshot of the actual RDL that i use.

    My table has field Category9Code with Net Turnover that I would like to have as 100%.

    The other Category9Codes should be calculated as a percentage of this Net Turnover.

    Thanks!

  • Unfortunately I am not able to attach the 2 images properly in my reply ...

    I used the image shortcut with an absolute URL to my local system using syntax "file:///C|/dir1/dir2/filename.png".

    No spaces in the filename ...

    How can I attach a file from my local computer?

    When posting, scroll down. In the bottom right corner is an Edit Attachments button.

    Excellent job posting ddl and sample data. Hopefully the attachments will help but also a description of how you want these calculations would be a big help.

  • Hi Sean,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have attached two screenshots with extra info in my reply with the SQL code.

    Hopefully I managed to get my point clear enough.

    regards,

    Michiel
