Posted on by johnjohnPter 1,748 Super User 2024 Season 1
I have this SharePoint list which contain 2 columns:-
 
1) Target Amount
2) Actual Amount
 
now i can showing them inside a Column chart inside a vertical gallery as follow:-
 
 
 
Now i do not want to show numbers, instead i want to show percentages, mainly to divide the (Actual Amount / Target amount) and show this percentage inside a column + second column showing 100. is this possible? mainly if i can define formula inside the Series? or i need to create 2 additional columns inside the list? one which is calculated (Actual Amount / Target amount) and one with a static value of 100?
 
Thanks

    Hi

    Yes, you can display percentages inside a column chart in PowerApps without needing to add extra columns in your SharePoint list. You can define the formula directly in PowerApps to calculate the percentage (Actual Amount / Target Amount) and use that within the chart's series.

    [
        {
            "Name": "Actual",
            "Value": ThisItem.'Actual Amount' / ThisItem.'Target Amount' * 100
        },
        {
            "Name": "Target",
            "Value": 100
        }
    ]

    Set item property of the chart

    Thanks for the reply, but where i need to add this formula?
     
    [

        {

            "Name": "Actual",

            "Value": ThisItem.'Actual Amount' / ThisItem.'Target Amount' * 100

        },

        {

            "Name": "Target",

            "Value": 100

        }

    ]

     
     
    you mean to build a collection containing those new fields? if so, then i am not sure if this will work as the collection can hold up to 2 k items..
     
    or this will be within each gallery item?
