I have a SQL which counts the number of rows. Say the result is 80.
I would like to have a parameter that is user-input, to be the total. Lets say the user enters 100.
How would I use the two numbers, 80 and 100, to create a pie chart that shows the data takes up 80% of the total?
I cannot find a way to add custom slice in a pie chart in Crystal Report, is it even possible?
Thanks!
Your best bet may be to stick your SQL in a stored procedure then pass the crystal parameter to the sproc to generate the "dummy" slice.
You can add multiple items to your chart.
Create a formula that calculates the difference between your measured value and your total. In your case this would be total_rows_entered_by_user - number_of_rows. Add the number of rows and the formula to the chart:

I am using Power Bi to produce several reports, one of it is the NPS score for support. However, I am coming across an issue with the clustered column chart. It is showing the value against the total number rather than for each row.
What I want to see if the following (within Excel),
The NPS score is shown as a percentage for each week.
e.g. Week 3 has the Promoter at 95.5% and Detractor at 4.5%
However, when using Power Bi, I am shown the following, which is a Percentage of the grand total, instead of each week.
Using a Matrix, I could see the following as total numbers.
I can copy this Matrix and show it as a Percentage of each Row, which is also correctly showing the results.
I have the dates already set up using a feeder table to allow me to get the week number etc from a date within the main raw data, so they sort in the correct order..
My Chart is using the following table entries
Cal Week and WeekNo are both from the feeder table (Fiscal)
Net Promoter and Count of Case Num are from the RawData table.
How can I get the chart to show the percentages per week instead of the total?
I am also planning to use slicers to filter down further, for example, Regions (which are in the RawData).
I believe I will need to add an extra column to the RawData, but no idea what to put in it and then how to use that in the chart, and still allow it to slice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I calculate the percent of total number of active customers for each SalesOwner in one of my Workbook sheets:
As you see, I have also added the SalesOwner as a filter.
The calculated field (segment_active_members) is computed using the following formula:
COUNTD(wk_customer)/ SUM({FIXED : COUNTD([wk_customer])})
What I want to do is create a side-by-side bar chart where upon filtering one of SalesOwners, I am able to compare it with the total (100%). So if I filter the above sheet by SalesOwner X which takes 5% of total. I'd like to see only two bars with one having 5% of the other one's length.
So I add another calculated filed to the above scenario where a fixed total is calculated:
SUM({FIXED : COUNTD([wk_customer])}
We will have a new column in the above picture with a fixed value of 100% for all rows.
I get what I want when my filter is on "All".
But as soon as I select a single filter (SalesOwner), my first percentage is also changed into 100% and I can never compare it to total.
How can I show the percentage against total for single segments?
This could be one of the solution:
Change the calculation of segment_active_members as follows
SUM({FIXED [Sales Owner]: COUNTD([wk_customer])})/SUM({COUNTD([wk_customer])})
Remove the table calculation for segment_active_members in the Measure Values shelf
You'll see that you are able to filter it down without any problem now
Cheers!
Simple pivot table:
In this case, I'm pulling back 5 fields from the database:
Category
Year
Quarter
Numerator
Divisor
2 unfortunate facts. First, the year/quarters drift to provide a rolling 8-quarter view. Consequently, there will usually be 1 full year and 2 partials with their respective quarters. Second, the measures to be displayed are ratios of numerator to divisor. Naturally, Crystal is assuming that I want to divide everything and then total it, which is not correct.
How do you get the pivot table totals to calculate correctly as SUM({Numerator})/SUM({Denominator})? Since there are multiple levels in play, the Sum({Numerator}, {Attribute})/Sum({Denominator}, {Attribute}) doesn't seem to work or I'm missing an extra element to it.
This crosstab is intended to replace a report that individually calculated every cell, and is not viable for long-term maintenance. If the totals can't be corrected, we'll have to revert back to that format.
Once you create a cross tab... you can insert saperate column or row inside the existing column using the option embeeded summary
Right click---> Embeeded Summary ---> insert embeeded summary
This will insert a row as Edit This Formula.
Now on the newly created cell
Right click---> Embeeded Summary ---> Edit Calculation formula
This will open a window there write your division formula.
I have a Tableau bar chart which plots a number of measures for one particular row at a time in my data set (using a Quick Filter).
I was wondering if there was an easy way to add a reference line for each measure's average value across the entire data set.
You may have to bring in more data and use an alternative filtering method to 'quick filter' (like using a conditional expression in a calculated field). Such as:
if (condition of quickfilter) then
data
else
null
end
this way you can view only limited rows of data in your viz, while also bringing in the rest of the data for the average calculation.
I need to create a report where each page contains four columns. I initialy had them as subreports but I guess they dont need to be.
How do I make it so each entry in a supplied dataset is represented as a column? Say if I had a dataset with 6 rows, the report would span two pages with four columns on the first and two on the second.
In other horizontal reports I had one dataset row represented as a row in the detail section of the report. But now I need four dataset set rows for each detail section, as the detail section contains four columns.
Guess what I really am looking for is a vertical detail section, sort of, while retaining the rest of the report horizontal.
I suggest using a Crosstab - these are the Crystal equivalent of pivot tables in Excel, or matrixes in SSRS.
