How to Bring “Others” in a Pie chart when ranking is applied in the data.

 

Let’s say there is a set of Region and there Revenue like below:

Region

Revenue

East Japan

1,012,727

Bavaria

783,520

Mid-West

441,594

South

400,899

West

324,640

East Germany

259,752

West Japan

33,292

East Coast

19,124

Ruhr

10,976

 

My requirement is  to get the TOP 3 Region based on Revenue and to display its percentage share from overall revenue. From below table we want to create a pie chart using Region and Percentage column.

 

Region

Revenue

Percentage_Share_overall

East Japan

1,012,727

30.81%

Bavaria

783,520

23.84%

Mid-West

441,594

13.44%

Sum:

2,237,841

68.09%

 

Pie chart always display total out of 100, in the above block, the percentage total is 68.09% only.

This will not come in a pie chart properly.

 

Option will be to show Other’s contribution and show in the pie chart.

For eg.

 

Region

Revenue

Percentage

Bavaria

783,520

23.84%

East Japan

1,012,727

30.81%

Mid-West

441,594

13.44%

Others

1,048,683

31.91%

Sum:

3,286,524

100.00%

 

This table can now be properly displayed in Pie chart.

Now comes the interesting part, how to bring value “Others” in the data.

 

I followed below steps:

Step: 1 Added an object in universe with Select statement as ‘Others’ and pointed it to Region from List of tables. Like below:

 

Step: 2 In the Webi Report which already has Region and revenue data, created another query selecting the newly created object (Region-Others) and revenue.

 

Step 3: Merge the object Region and Region-Others.

 

Step 4: Created four variables:

a.       Revenue_variable=If([Region]="Others";[Query 1 (1)].[Revenue];[Query 1].[Revenue])

This variable is used to give data for others in the block along with other regions.

 

b.      Variable1 = [Query 1 (1)].[Revenue]-(Sum([Query 1].[Revenue]) In Block)

This is used to subtract the value of all regions-sum of regions in block, which will assign others data.

 

c.       Variable2=If([Region]="Others";[Variable1];[Revenue-Variable])

This issued to display the values for all regions including “Others”.

 

d.      Final Percentage=([Variable2]/Sum([Variable2]) In Block )

This is used for calculating percentage.

324,640

0.1

West Japan

33,292

-3,286,524

33,292

0.01

 

Step 5: Applied ranking based Revenue_variable. Although I need Top 3 , I selected Top 4(4th for the Others)

 

Region

Revenue-Variable

Variable1

Variable2

Percentage

Others

3,286,524

1,048,683

1,048,683

31.91%

East Japan

1,012,727

-2,237,841

1,012,727

30.81%

Bavaria

783,520

-2,237,841

783,520

23.84%

Mid West

441,594

-2,237,841

441,594

13.44%

 

Step 6: Using region and Percentage turned it to Pie chart.

So the pie chart is correct now.

 

Note: If you have query filters in Query 1, apply same filter in query 2 also.
