Trying to calculate turnover % using window functions in beast mode - total row issue
Hello all,
I am trying to calculate a monthly turnover % where the numerator is the count of terminations in the prior 12 months and the denominator is the average headcount over the last 12 months. If I create two separate beast modes for both parts of it, the output including the total row works correctly. However, when I try to combine both pieces into the Turnover %, the individual rows show the correct value but the total row is just summing the percentages of each row.
I thought I was on the right track when I was able to calculate the two parts separately, but can't figure out why combining them isn't calculating the correct total %.
In the attached photo you can see that the total row shows the correct LTM avg. Headcount of 192, the total LTM terms of 29, but instead of showing 29/192 = 15%, it's adding the three percentages together to show 49%

By default the total is summed, if you select the Turnover % in your column list for your pivot table you can change how it's aggregated for the total record.

Since the beast mode is "pre-aggregated", the field settings don't have the option for choosing which aggregation type

If you go under the Total section of that drop-down menu that's where you can change how the total row is calculated.

I feel like I've seen before what you're referring to, but the Total menu only gives me options for formatting the total row style options
