I am having a % field when I aggregates it, am getting the total value of the  percentage say 70%+30%+50% = 150% but not the actual SUM % of the field. Could any one help me out.
Thanks in Advance.

What kind of rollup have you used for this measure? Check if you have used before rollup or after rollup for the measure?

Thanks for the reply, i have sorted out that issue.

[Quantity] / total([Quantity] within set [Month],[Area])

The above thing will display the 100% Total of Quantity sold with respect to Month & Area of sales.

I need this total function as well to calculate the Marketshare %:

e.g.:
(Quantity / total(Quantity] within set [Competitors])

But the total function it is not available in the functions when I add a calculated measure.

Any idea why?
