Calculate percentage of total and display as pie chart

I have total of 7M users. My splunk query shows the count of completed users. I want to draw a pie chart showing completed users vs Total users. 

So far I have gotten this far 

    << my query>> | eval TotalMax=7000000 | stats count(Path) as completed | eval perc=(completed/TotalMax)/100 | table completed,perc

count(Path) which is same as completed comes out as 200000
But perc is not getting calculated.  Am I missing anything ?

Hi @balash1979,

After stats command only fields  that stats outputs are exist. On your case you are loosing TotalMax field, so perc cannot be calculated. Below should work;

    << my query>> 
| stats count(Path) as completed 
| eval TotalMax=7000000
| eval perc=(completed/TotalMax)/100 
| table completed,perc

OR

    << my query>> 
| eval TotalMax=7000000 
| stats count(Path) as completed values(TotalMax) as TotalMax
| eval perc=(completed/TotalMax)/100 
| table completed,perc
