Power Pivot :: Measure To Count All People Who Have Been Employed Since Start Of Time?

Jul 29, 2015

Say that I have employee data for 2010-2015. I have a pivot table that displays employee data for all the different months in 2015 I want each month to show all people who have been employed since the start of time until and including that month. So

for January 2015 it should show all people employed from January 2010 to January 2015.
for February 2015 it should show all people employed from January 2010 to February 2015.
for March 2015 it should show all people employed from January 2010 to March 2015.

How can I write a measure for this? I have a date table set up.

Power Pivot :: Measure Count Rows - If Condition - Multiple Tables

Nov 7, 2014

I want to count the rows in the Incident Table by using filters to limit the rows to be counted if they meet the below conditions. I know I need a logical test for each row of the incident table based on the apparatus table’s rows. But, I want to test for each row in the incident table, counting, but not returning a true or false in the overall measure.Something like look at each incident row, test for true or false and then count IF the statement is true. Then go to the next incident row and do the same. The aggregation would be the final count of “true” results.I tried this for MET objective:

=CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(incident),
        apparatus[Incident Response Time] >-1 ||
        apparatus[Incident Response Time] <320,
        uv_901APP_TYPE[Description]="Engine",
        uv_901INCIDENT[Top_Category]="Fire"

[code]....

Power Pivot :: Calendar Look Up Table - Custom 24 Hour Start Time

Jul 9, 2015

I know how to do this in Excel, but not sure about Power Pivot. Our fire department works on a 24 hour shift that starts at 0700 each morning. I want to look up what shift is working depending on the date and time of dispatch. In Excel, I would do a look up table, but instead of using false() as  the last parameter, I would choose true().

I am not sure if this would be best created as a calculated column in the table that holds the incident date and time values, or have a separate table and create a relationship to use the shift in the rows/columns of my pivot table.

Power Pivot :: Force Measure To Be Visible For All Rows In Pivot Table Even When There Is No Data?

Oct 13, 2015

Can I force the following measure to be visible for all rows in a pivot table?

Sales Special Visibility:=IF(
    HASONEVALUE(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany])
    ;IF(
        VALUES(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]) = "Sales"
        ;CALCULATE([Sales];ALL(dimSalesCompanies[SalesCompany]))
        ;[Sales]
    )
    ;BLANK()
)

FYI, I also have other measures as well in the pivot table that I don't want to affect.

Power Pivot :: How To Apply Min Formula Under New Measure Within A Pivot Table

Aug 17, 2015

How can I apply "Min" formula under a "new measure" (calculated field) within a pivot table under Power pivot 2010?Can see that neither does it allow me to apply "min" formula directly "formula box" nor could find any other option.Intent formula: "=Min(1,sum(a:b))" this isn't allowed so all I can do is "=sum(a:b)".

Power Pivot :: DAX - Min / Max And Average On Calculated Measure

Jun 5, 2015

I have a calculated measure that is "Cost Per Patient:=sum([ActualCost]) / sum(Patients[PatientCount])" and it works fine. I'd like to be able to create another calculated measure based on "cost per patient" that uses min, max and average of "cost per patient" but dax wont let me.

I've read about dax calculate but not sure how to use it in my situation. Here is background on the problem:

There are 2 fact tables, prescription cost and patient count. Both are related by a practice dimension. The practice dimension has a geography hierarchy of county - town - practice. 

The "Cost Per Patient" works fine with the geography hierarchy. By that I mean it shows the correct value when looking at the different levels. For my new calculation, for example looking at the list of counties, I want to use the min, max and average of "Cost Per Patient" of all counties. To break the problem down, I was going to start with creating and testing separate calculated measures for min, max and average and that's where I am stuck.

My understanding of the problem is it's something to do with the context of where the calculation is being made. As I want to perform the min, max and average on all the children of the parent. This article explains it but I can't figure out how to apply it to my situation [URL] ....

Power Pivot :: DAX Calculated Measure For Sum Of Max Values

Sep 21, 2015

We have a client that wants to take the Max value of a count at the Product level, but then for each Brand (Parent of product), sum the Max values for that particular slice.  The example below shows the Max sales per month over the last 6 months. 

Prod1 had it's best month in Month2 (20 units) and Prod2 had its best month in Month4 (30 units).  Brandx should roll up to 50 units.  Can DAX handle this in a single Calc Measure?

Brandx          50
    Prod1        20
    Prod2        30
Brandy          60
    Prod5        40
    Prod6        20

Power Pivot :: Calculated Measure Maxing Out RAM

Nov 6, 2015

I have a calculated measure in Power Pivot that takes too long to run that it would max out my RAM when running it in Excel 2016 (for some reason it actually manages to run in Excel 2013 but still takes a long time). How to optimise the measure? I have shared the measure below. it is the Unique Leads (MTD) measure that I need to run in a pivot table that is broken down by everyday in a month. The Unique Leads (MTD) measure basically calculates the month-to-date unique leads where a unique lead is defined as an email address that has not appeared in the 'application' table thus far in a particular month.

Unique Leads (MTD):=[CumulativeUniqueApps]-CALCULATE([CumulativeUniqueApps], filter(allexcept('application', Affiliate[Affiliate], 'Lead Type'[Loan Type]), CALCULATE([CumulativeUniqueApps], filter('application', EARLIER([Date])< [Date]))))

CumulativeUniqueApps:=calculate(DISTINCTCOUNT([Email]), filter(allexcept('application', Affiliate[Affiliate], 'Lead Type'[Loan Type]), CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT([Email]), filter('application', earlier([Date])<=[Date]))))

Power Pivot :: Create Measure That Returns A Subtotal

Jun 25, 2015

I'm working on a measure which I'd like to use in PowerView, my data model contains 2 things:

1) Employees' scores
2) Stores in which employees work in

I would like to be able to put the employee's score in comparison to the store average (which is the average of all the employee's scores in the store), and then provide every employee with an individual report on their scores against their store's score (by tiling the view in PowerView by Employee). To do this, my (first attempt) at a measure for the store average looks like the following:

Overall_Avg:=CALCULATE([Score], ALL(Employee[Name]))

Which gives me the score of the employee vs. all other employees across all stores. What I'd like to then achieve is to add an additional filter that filters only the scores for the store that the employee belongs to - which is where I'm stuck.

Here are some of my attempts at them

Store_Avg:=CALCULATE([Score], ALL(Employee[Name]), FILTER(Employee[Store] = Store[Store Name]))

returns an error for me. However, trying:

Store1_Avg:= CALCULATE([Score], ALL(Employee[Name]), FILTER(Employee[Store] = "Store 1"))

works perfectly, but doesn't give me the desired output, which is 1 measure that changes the store depending on which employee (and thus store) is being selected.

Power Pivot :: Creating Measure That Looks Only At Previous X Number Of Days

Jul 20, 2015

I have a table with date in the following format:

orderID | dateOrdered | customerID 

101 | 01/01/2015 | 1
102 | 02/02/2015 | 2
103 | 05/06/2015 | 3 

I need to create a measure that tells me how many customer's placed an order in the previous 91 days of any given date, not necessarily today. 

So, if you imagine a PivotTable which has a series of dates down the left hand side and 'totalNoCustomersLast60Days' as the only column, I need each day to tell me how many customers ordered in the x number of days.

For example if we say 60 days my table would look like the following:

Each row in this table would be telling me that "x number of customers placed orders within the period 60 days prior to,and including, the date on the left".

I have tried numerous ways of doing this and despite thinking it should be incredible simple it eludes me.

Power Pivot :: Measure Calculated On Leaf Level And Rolled Up

Jun 19, 2015

I have the following scenario. I want to apply some calculations on different levels and then aggregate them up.

First measure calculates at Productgroup,color,store,size level

ProductGroup Color Store Size Amount Quantity

Measure:Amount*Quantity   (ProductGroup, Color, Store, Size)

A Blue Store A L 100 6 600
A Red Store A S 150 4 600
A Green Store A M 160 7 1120
B Blue Store A L 300 3 900

[Code] ........

The other measure ignores color

ProductGroup Store Size Amount Quantity

Measure:Amount*Quantity   (ProductGroup, Store, Size)

A Store A L 100 6 600
A Store A S 150 4 600
A Store A M 160 7 1120
B Store A L 640 15 9600

[Code] ...

Ignoring that gives another figure for productgroup B. In the pivot, I should see both measures at whatever attribute, except for the measure that excludes color will be null if tried split on color

ProductGroup Amount Quantity (ProductGroup, Color, Store,   Size) (ProductGroup, Store, Size)
A 410 17 2320 2320
B 640 15 2820 9600
C 170 5 430 430

How should the two measure be defined:

Measure (ProductGroup,Color,Store,Size)
Measure (ProductGroup,Store,Size)

Power Pivot :: Can Measure Be Effected By Cross-filtered But Unselected Slicer Item?

Aug 17, 2015

My actual data is a bit more complicated, and uses fact and dimension tables, but I simplified it here.

I'm trying to build a chart that will compare sales of a single store to regional and national sales. The measures look like this:

Sales = SUM(FactTable[Net Sales])
Regional Sales = CALCULATE([Sales], ALL(FactTable[Store Number]))
National Sales = CALCULATE([Sales], ALL(FactTable))

And it ends up looking like this:

Note that the Store Number is selected, but the Store Region is not, it's just the result of cross-filtering. Regional Sales incorrectly matches National Sales. If I then select the Region, the measures work:

I'm actually using VBA to change the Store Number slicer, as the end users don't want to select the region, then scroll through a list of store numbers. They just want to enter a store number and hit enter. I've tried a few things in DAX and VBA, and failed.

Power Pivot :: Create Measure Within Date Dimension Table To Sum Single Entry Per Month Eliminating Duplicates

Jul 27, 2015

We are trying to do some utilization calculations that need to factor in a given number of holiday hours per month.

I have a date dimension table (dimdate).  Has a row for every day of every year (2006-2015)

I have a work entry fact table (timedetail).  Has a row for every work entry.  Each row has a worked date, and this column has a relationship to dimdate.

Our holidays fluctuate, and we offer floating holidays that our staff get to pick.  So we cannot hard code which individual dates in dimdate as holidays.  So what we have done is added a column to our dimdate table called HolidayHoursPerMonth. 

This column will list the number of holiday hours available in the given month that the individual date happens to fall within, thus there are a lot of duplicates.  Below is a brief example of dimdate.  In the example below, there are 0 holiday hours for the month of June, and their are 8 holiday hours for the month of July.

DateKey MonthNumber HolidayHoursPerMonth
6/29/2015 6 0
6/30/2015 6 0
7/1/2015 7 8
7/2/2015 7 8

I have a pivot table create based of the fact table.  I then have various date slicers from the dimension table (i.e. year, month).  If I simply drag this column into the pivot table and summarize by MAX it works when you are sliced on a single month, but breaks if anything but a single month is sliced on.  

I am trying to create a measure that calculates the amount of holiday hours based on the what's sliced, but only using a single value for each month.  For example July should just be 8, not  8 x #of days in the month. 

Listed below is how many hours per month.  So if you were to slice on an entire year, the measure should equal 64.  If you sliced on Jan, Feb and March, the measure should equal 12.  If you were to slice nothing, thus including all 15 years in our dimdate table, the measure should equal 640 (10 years x 64 hours per year).

MonthNumberOfYear HolidayHoursPerMonth
1 8
2 4
3 0
4 0
5 8
6 0
7 8
8 0
9 8
10 4
11 16
12 8

Power Pivot :: Measure Results Limited By Fact Table Dates Instead Of Date Table

Sep 17, 2015

I cannot create a measure that returns results for dates that do not exist in the fact table despite the fact that the components included in the measure contain valid results for these same dates.Creature a measure that counts the number of days where the "stock qty" is below the "avg monthly sales qty for the last 12 months" (rolling measure).Here is the DAX code I have tried for the measure (note that filter explicitly refers to the date table (called Calendar) and not the fact table):

StkOutCnt:=CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( Calendar[DateKey] ) ),
FILTER (
Calendar,
[Stock qty] < [Avg Monthly Sales Qty L12M@SKU]
)
)

Below you can see the sub measures (circled in red) are giving results for all days in the calendar.Highlighted in yellow are dates for which the StkOutCnt measure is not returning a result. Having investigated these blank dates, I am pretty confident that they are dates for which there are no transactions in the fact table (weekends, public holidays etc...).why I am getting an "inner join" with my fact table dates despite the fact that this is not requested anywhere in the dax code and that the two sub measures are behaving normally?

Power Pivot :: Masking Low Value Cell Count

Jul 20, 2015

I have a dataset which contains sensitive person information that can be sliced by various demographic groups.

When I use PowerPivot to query it if I use more than say 5 groups the resulting value within a cell may fall below an acceptable value of say 10 and render the group of people identifiable.

What I would like is some way to generate the lowest group such that any combination < 10 returns 10 and any hierarchy/group above the detail uses this new value for its summary.

Here is an example of how it would look now (I have used only 3 groups Gender followed by Age group and Age to keep it simple):

Gender   Age group   Age Count
 Male                       32 
         20-25              30
                     21      9
                     24     10
                     25     11
         26-30               2
                     30      2

This is how I would like it to look:

Gender   Age group   Age Count
 Male                       <41 
         20-25              <31
                     21     <10
                     24     10
                     25     11
         26-30              <10
                     30     <10

I have actually tried to do it myself but the DAX expression is beyond me. I use ISFILTERED(<column name>) or HASONEVALUE to get the lowest level group (Age) to work but of course I can't get the levels above it in the hierarchy to calculate based upon the interim result... 

IF(HASONEVALUE(Measure[Age]),if([Count]>5,[Count],if(ISBLANK([Count]),0,5)),BLANK())

Power Pivot :: SPC Average Of A Count Of Text Column

Dec 1, 2015

This is an SPC chart controlled by a slicer that operates a powerpivot table. This is then copied (by cell formula) into a "normal" table where the average, UCL, LCL and Erlang are calculated which are just basic calculations involving average and standard deviation. To make it work the values in the Average, UCL,LCL and Erlang must be repeated all the way down the table to create the chart. In the current format it works well and using a standard table keeps the chart range dynamic.

However this is a very clunky solution involving repeating the data tables in excel. I need to create dozens of charts and it will get large and slow.I would like to create the whole thing in a powerpivot table using measures so i can use powerpivot charts and ultimately powerBI. The data column PasID is a text column so I need a measure that calculates the "count of PasID" for each day(the row labels) and then repeats that value down a whole column in the same way the standard table does. I couldn't figure out how to get the correct number repeat down the whole column, which measures to use,Whether to create calculated columns in the data model or any of it. SO I need to be able to get a count of a text column then display the average of that count in a second column all the way down.

Power Pivot :: Calculating Count Prior To Header Date

Nov 13, 2015

How do I use calculate or something similar to sum the count of records created minus count of records closed prior to the beginning of the period?

The pivot looks like this right now and works by month:

beginning active records ?????
count of records created 100
count of records deleted 50
net records created 50
running balance in net records created 100 (theoretically the next month's beginning balance, but can't figure out how to reference or calculate)

Power Pivot :: 28 Day Rolling Averages With Discrete Time Attributes

Jul 14, 2015

I've been able to find plenty of info online in relation to calculating moving averages for a given value. I am having a specific problem however.

So because I need to see the average on a daily basis, my forumla (below) works fine:

However, my Calendar dimension (TIME) also has a discreet, non-continuous attribute called DateMonth (which looks like 1-Jan, 2-Jan etc.) which has no reference to the year.

I was hoping this would allow me then to take my year attribute and compare the 28 Day Average for the 1st of Jan across multiple years.

So you could have a line chart where the X axis is 1-Jan to 31-Dec (with no reference to the year) and the series category is by year, so a line for each year.

But when I replace DATE with DateMonth in my pivot, the calc gives some strange numbers.

Rolling28DayAvg :=
CALCULATE (
    [Revenue],
    DATESINPERIOD (
        TIME[DATE],
        LASTDATE ( TIME[DATE] ),

Power Pivot :: Return Time Based Upon Sum Of Personnel Arriving At Fire Scene

Sep 10, 2015

As part of analyzing our fire department's response times, we measure the time it takes to get a certain amount of people on a fire scene. I have two table that contains incident data. The incident table contains one row per incident. The apparatus table contains multiple rows per incident with each row contain the information for each unit. They are connected by the incident key with a one to many relationship. 

The column apparatus.num_personnel contains the count of personnel for each fire truck. The goal is to capture the response time of the unit that is carrying the 10th person to the scene. In the example below, E78 was the unit that the sum of apparatus.num_personnel was => 10. There response time of 0:06:18 is returned to the incident table. 

I realize I will need to create a logical test (calculated column on the incident table) that sums the number of personnel for each incident and then when that number => 10, then return the MIN Response Time of that row. From past projects, I understand I can create a temporary table (ADD COLUMNS) which will iterate over each incident row, comparing the units for that incident. I"m just not sure how to put it all together. 

Overview of data model. The incident and apparatus are my data tables and the rest are lookup tables. The parameter table is used for a percentile measure, but doesn't play a role with this project.

=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1].&[1]") work fine - 1st quarter 1st month etc.

Is there a straightforward notation to aggregate months or do I need to use a plus sign to add a number of CUBEMEMBER formulas together.In other words - Is there an easier way of for say jan to july 2015 totals than

=CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[1]") + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[2]")) + (CUBEMEMBER("OLAPCUBE","[Time].[Time].[Year].&[2015].&[3].&[7]"))

I haven't tested this but have assumed it works but a bit long and clumsy.
