Segment Data Based On Percentage Groups

DAX Showcase
#1

My scenario is I am trying to show recipients of email newsletters and of those who opened the emails and for the newsletter type what percentage was their open rate i.e. A person could be sent 12 emails in a period and they read 6 so are in the 50% bracket, I then want to show that as a grouping of the percentage So, Group Never opened, G2 1 to 10%, G3 10% to 50% etc… I have tried following to the show case Segment Data Based on Percentage Groups - Advanced DAX In Power BI

I have created by report but I just can’t seem to get the grouping by % segments working right hopefully I have just done something silly.
If someone could take a look and tell me what a noob I am and how to fix it I will be very much grateful.

Hi @tsql_simon

Try with this Measures

Segment = 
CALCULATE(
    [# Contact],
    FILTER(
        VALUES(Contacts[CONTACT_Id]),
        COUNTROWS(
            FILTER(Segements,
            [Open Percentage] >= Segements[Low] &&
            [Open Percentage] < Segements[High]) 
        ) >0
    ))

and

# Contact = COUNTROWS(Contacts)

This is the result for 4 Contacts

Hi @jbressan

I can’t thank you enough that worked a treat, had to tweak it slightly when I introduced all the data (9.6m records) to limit it to ALLSELECTED but other than that perfect.

I must have tried loads of variations of that but just could not get it quite right, you help was invaluable.
