Hi,
I'm new to Domo. Is there any way how to add a percentage in the pivot table? So, besides the total, I would also like to know the percentage of each category.
Thank you.
Hi @ndldty, you can create a beast mode for % of total by using a window function, for example:
Sum('Value')
/
Sum(Sum('Value)) over ()
For % by category, you would use:
over (partition by Category) in the above formula.
You'll need to check with your Customer Success Rep if that feature is enabled for you.
It's also worth pointing that sometimes you can achieve the same look by using the mega table, which will give you the option to just check a box to get percent of total instead of having to write a beast mode.
This will depend on how you are wanting to present the data, but is worth looking into.
Hi @ndldty, how did you go with this?
Hi @amehdad thank you for the suggestion. I just tried using the formula you have suggested, and somehow I got an error.
I create a pivot table card based on the data that I have.
I would like to show the percentage in the column, so it will look like this spreadsheet pivot table that I previously create
I'm using the formula you've suggested:
Sum('Employee')
Sum(Sum('Organization')) over (partition by 'Employee')
What's the error message you are getting?
it says:
"An issue has occurred during processing. We are unable to complete the request at this time."
Have you had your Customer Success Manager switch on the feature for Window Function in your instance?
Sorry, I just have time to try it. It's working now. Thanks for the suggestion. @amehdad
