Hi

I have a view which returns the data as below.

RegionDesc	MATotal	PartsTotal	DemandTotal	Total
1	7349.35	40763.52	6282.14	54395.01
2	28647.27	4093.57	55642.37	88383.21
3	64866.01	2601.77	138190.18	205657.96
4	219336.09	155.09	67716.4	287207.58
5	28293.00	4619.79	42894.18	75806.97

I need to add Percentage column next to the Total.

Calculation should be Sum(Total) / Total of each row.

RegionDesc	MATotal	PartsTotal	DemandTotal	Total	Percentage
1	7349.35	40763.52	6282.14	54395.01	13.08
2	28647.27	4093.57	55642.37	88383.21	8.05
3	64866.01	2601.77	138190.18	205657.96	3.46
4	219336.09	155.09	67716.4	287207.58	2.48
5	28293.00	4619.79	42894.18	75806.97	9.39

Please suggest me.

Thx

Vijji

how about this?

SELECT

RegionDesc,

MATotal,

PartsTotal,

DemandTotal,

Total,

(CASE WHEN ISNULL(Total,0.00) = 0 then 0

ELSE ISNULL(MATotal,0.00) +

ISNULL(PartsTotal,0.00) +

ISNULL(DemandTotal,0.00) / Total END) * 100 As Percentage

FROM SOMETABLE

Hi

calculations should be

Sum(Total) / Total of each row

Thx

Try this:

;with TotalAmt (

GrandTotal

) as (

select

sum(Total)

from

dbo.yourView

)

select

RegionDesc,

MATotal,

PartsTotal,

DemandTotal,

Total,

cast(( GrandTotal/ Total) as decimal(5,2)) as Percent

from

dbo.yourView

cross join TotalAmt

For what it's worth - that's the INVERSE of a percentage.

Percent of total = group total/Grand total (NOT Grand total/Group Total).

Might as well save you the pain before an accounting type comes along and wonders why they don't add up to 100%=1....

Of course - other than that - Lynn's solution will work great.

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

Just giving to OP what was requested. I'd prefer this for the percentage column:

cast((Total/GrandTotal) * 100 as decimal(5,2)) as Percent

Understood Lynn - I noticed OP had calculation backwards. I should have specified WHO the comment was directed at. I haven't figured out the quote thingie in the new version of the boards yet:)
