Percent of Parent Reference

This aggregate works like Percent of Parent, with the difference that a value from one column is compared to a parent level sum of values from another column, which is set as the “Reference column”:

[single child node value from a column] / [sum of all child node values from the reference column in the group]

While Percent of Parent will always summarize to 100% at the group (parent) level, this is not the case with Percent of Parent Reference, which can summarize to any number, depending on the differences between the Values and the Reference Values.

The aggregate value is calculated as a ratio between 0 and 1 and will be presented as a percentage value by applying a percent format string in the aggregation settings.
