    If you want the percentages in the same table as the Cust_ID rows, you'll need to use a FIXED function ( https://domo-support.domo.com/s/article/4408174643607?language=en_US ).

    If not, I would create a new card without the Cust_ID rows so that you only show Sale_Type, and then use a Beast Mode or format one of the measurement pills to give you the % of total for each Sale_Type.

    @Isaiah02 if you do want the percent of total by sale_type in your table, here is an example of a beast mode you could use to achieve this.

    SUM(COUNT(Sale_Type)) FIXED (BY Sale_Type)
    /
    SUM(COUNT(Sale_Type)) FIXED()

    Example output
