select sum(hs_GPA)/sum(enrolled) from mytalbe

where ADMISSIONS_POPULATION = 'Enrolled' and enrolled >0 and hs_gpa is not null;

 

The closest thing I have is

case when (<<Measures.HS_GPASUM_for Calc>> is null) then null else sum(<<Measures.HS_GPASUM_for Calc>>)/suM(<<Measures.ENROLLEDSUM>>) end

 

Then I set a filter on where enrolled.

However, the result comes out to .2 rather than an expected GPA.  Its records with null GPA are still being calculated.

I'm confused, what are you trying to convert to an expression?

Ok, but why convert, why not leave as is?

This may be an alternative:

 

sum(hs_GPA*(admissions_population='Enrolled' and enrolled>0 and hs_gpa is not null))/sum(enrolled*(admissions_population='Enrolled' and enrolled>0 and hs_gpa is not null))

I'm confused.  If I need to access the dimension in Web Report Studio don't I need to convert it to an expression to use a custom data item?

My bad. Missed the WRS portion. I have no idea about it.
