Beastmode filter computation

I want to know if there is a way to do the following in Beastmode.

 

I have a dataset with sales of asian countries

1). I want to filter and get the sum of only Japan and Taiwan.
2). I want to use the result of 1 in a computation such as SUM(Japan_sales and Taiwan_sales)/SUM(Asian of all countries)

 

I can't use ETL or dataflow for some reason.

    You might be able to do something like this:

     

    SUM( CASE WHEN `countrycolumn` IN ('Japan','Taiwan') THEN `Sales Amount`
    END)
    /
    SUM( `Sales Amount`)

    You should be able to limit the the sales of only Japan and Taiwan in the numerator and then sum everything (since your dataset is 'Asian countries') in the denominator. 

     

    Let me know if you have any questions,
