I have a table called PJLabDet.Total_Hrs which is the sum of hours of 7 days.
I would like to get a running total for this field which would reset when my group (called PJLabDat.pjt_entity) changes.
Creating a burn down chart using a running total of cumulative hours with the following formula:
CumulativeHoursLeft:=CALCULATE (
SUM('Projects'[Budget hours]) - SUM ( 'hours'[Hours] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'hours'[Date] ),
'hours'[Date] <= MAX ('hours'[Date])
)
)
Works great except that in a Line Chart using [Date] as the Axis and CumulativeHoursLeft as the value, I get these spikes on days for which the employee reported no hours. I do know what exactly the measure is doing in this instance and I do not get this in a table, those dates simply do not appear. I have tried both Categories and Continuous for the Line Chart. I have also tried filtering where [Date] is not blank.how to get rid of the spikes?
I have 2 columns 1) Total Premium and 2) New-Renew Indicator in my Powerpivot.
The requirement is to show the a) New Premium as a Percent of Total Premium and b) Renew Premium as a percentage of Total Premium. Here is what i did:
a) Created a calculated measure called Percentage:= Divide(Total Premium, Total Premium, 0) . The percentage shows 100% as expected.
b) Now when i try to bring in the Column 2)New-Renew alongside this Percentage in the pivot table, both New and Renew shows 100%. I only have about 20 percent rows with New, and 80% of Renew.
When i bring in the original column = 1) Total Premium, the new-renew split shows correctly, just the percentage is not splitting up correctly. How to achieve it?
How can I change the output into the total hours between 2 smalldatetime data? TIF
DECLARE @iDAY AS SmallDatetime
SET @iDAY = '2004-08-12 10:05:00'
PRINT @iDAY
PRINT GETDATE()
PRINT GETDATE()-@iDAY

Jan 2 1900 12:00AM <--- I want to get the total hours (i.e. 24)
I've created a measure counting instances of unique identifiers utilizing the following formula. However, the Grand Total does not equal the sum of the sub-totals.
=CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(DISTINCT('Rawdata File'[Identifier])),ALL('Rawdata File'[Identifier]))
There seems like there must be a way, but I'm a bit new to power BI. I've easily created a pivot/matrix summary table with all the numbers I need except one.....Percent of Total.For example, my table looks like the table below. What do I need to do to add an additional row that calculates the Percent of Total? So in this example, I'm looking to calculate the values of 40% (40/100) and 60% (60/100).
1 2
Total
Row 1 20
10 30
Row 2 15
20 35
Row 3 5
30 36
Total 40
60 100
% Total 40% 60%
Any way to create a measure that filters the second column to mimic the behavior of only filtering for slicer for the Open Pool Date values as per the image below. Ultimately, I need to create a measure that only includes accounts that were opened 6 months prior to the month row context.
Trying to get the values in the second column to only include aging accounts 6 months prior instead of 12 months prior.
Trailing6Month Conversion:=CALCULATE([TOTAL LTD Converted Amount] ,Filter(Settlement700,Settlement700[OpenDatePool]>=RELATED(DimDate[Trailing6MonthsEnd])))
Trailing6Month LTD Conversion Amount:=CALCULATE([Trailing6Month Conversion],DATESINPERIOD(DimDate[FullDate],LASTDATE(DimDate[FullDate]),-6,Month))
I created a PowerPivot measure which is a ratio Ratio = Number of Events/Time calculated on 12 months. I would like the grand total to be this Rate Sum(Number Of Events)/Sum(Time calculated).
In my Pivot I have one measure which I called Value and this value can have different types depending on one attribute.For instance one attribute is number of events, an other one is time and the third one is ratio.I want to display a custom grand total simple sum for events and time and a calculation of my ratio for ratio.
For instance
201501 201502 201503 TOTAL
Number of events 8 10 10 28
Time 5 5
4 14
Ratio 8/5 10/5 10/4 28/14
In the typical Job Cost Reporting world you can easily create SQL Views / Stored Procedures (or create a report) that can return both Job To Date values along with period values for another date range. Something like this:
Job,
Phase of Work,
Cost Type,
UM,
Budgeted Cost,
Budgeted Quantity,
Period Cost,
Period Quantity,
Period Unit Cost,
JTD Cost,
JTD Quanity,
JTD Unit Cost,
Variance between JTD and Period Cost,
Variance between JTD and Period Quantity,
Variance between JTD and Period Unit Cost
But in the tabular BI world I am not certain how to have these values show up in a pivot table or BI visualization. My current Fact table is essentially every job cost transaction so it is at the most granular level holding Company, Job, Phase of Work, UM, Cost Type, Date, Budget Cost, Budget Quantity, Actual Cost, Actual Quantity. The Budget values only have a value if the entry was updating the budget and the Actual values hold actual cost for each transaction. If you don't restrict by date you have your Budgeted Quantity / Cost and Job To date Cost / Quantity.
I can generate a Pivot table or chart and not restrict by date and I can get all the Budget Totals and the Job To Date Totals when I have the Company, Job, Phase Of Work, Cost Type.
But what if I want to look at a range like last quarter or yesterday or last week. I can indeed filter that data in Pivot Table and get the period values, but now I don't know how to have the Job To Date values show up for comparison purposes.
I am guessing maybe a DAX formula (if using Excel Powerpivot or SQL Tabular Model), but I am at a loss.
So in the BI world how do you get Job To Date totals while also viewing the data for a period of time?
Here are some example graphs we would want to show for a single Job. Let's say we want to show the 10 worst performing cost distributions.
I would want a graph to show the cost distribution and for each cost distribution it would show Budgeted Cost, Period Cost, Job To Date Cost.I would want a graph to show the cost distribution and for each cost distribution it would show Budgeted Unit / Cost, Period Unit / Cost, Job To Date Unit / Cost.I would want a graph to show the cost distribution and the variance between JTD and Budget and Period and Budget.
As you can see it all stems around seeing JTD and Budget values vs Period Values. Here is a visualization that may work. I am using PivotTable filtered on one Company, Job, Phase of Work. I can see the sum of actual cost which is the totals for the date range I provided. But I still want to see the JTD totals for that Phase of Work and Cost Types and actually the Budget Totals as that is sort of a JTD, but for budget... especially if I want to compare Budget vs JTD vs Actual.
I tried below measure to get the YTD running product and its working fine for me. but I found one issue that its give me slow performance while I see running product by different dimension level.
YTD Return:= IF(HASONEVALUE(Calender[Year])),
POWER(10,SUMX(
FILTER(ALL(Calendar), Calender[Year] = VALUES(Calender[Year]) && Calendar[Date] <= MAX(Calendar[Date])),
IF([Return (%)] > -1, LOG(1+[Return (%)])
), -1
I am tracking FX changes for USD Vs other currencies. I want to allow my users to choose a Start date and an End date and see the accumulative % Change for the index in a line chart (baseline set as Start date). Additional Q - I prefer the dates slicer to be from "Timeline" type instead of 2 regular slicers.

The Excel 2013 has Model class that should manage the PowerPivot data sources. The object explorer shows CreateModelWorkbookConnection method, but I can't figure out the VBA syntax.
I created the below graph in PowerView. The Y axis shows values in % but I want to change this to millions. How do I do this?The Y axis value is the result of a calculation that is formatted as currency in the PowerPivot Manager.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel 2013 file with lots of DAX connected to an Azure database. I'd like to reuse all that work by changing the data source for the PowerPivot model to a different database which is an exact copy (just empty) on the same server, but Excel won't let me. In PowerPivot I can change the database connection, the user ID and password as well as the connections name. When opening each table properties (inside PowerPivot model) the new connection is used and all old data is removed, but as soon as I refresh using Existing connections, both from PowerPivot or from the Excel Data tab, the old connection is used and old data is reloaded.
If I use Existing connections from inside PowerPivot, I can se that the new connection is highlighted and has the correct variable, but I think maybe that one is run first, then the old one is run afterwards (or something like that).
On the Excel Data tab, I can see that the old connection is the only one Excel itself seems to know about, but I cannot change anything there as it's read-only.
There must be a way to change this. Even with copy and paste it would take me days to recreate this Excel file from scratch and it would be a serious flaw and reduction of usability for PowerPivot.
I am having issues where the PowerPivot Field List does not refresh once I add a new table/field then select Refresh All under Data. I have to refresh every single PowerPivot Field List so they are all refreshed. ("PowerPivot data was modified" message). This doesn't happen at first but once the model is built on it tends to happen.I'm on Excel 2010 PowerPivot 2012 SP2 32bit. I have Windows 7 64bit and I'm wondering if the bitness inconsistency is an issue.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking to add a column to one of my tables that displays a running rank of how many times a customer has ordered in a given period.
I currently have such a column however this column ranks against ALL of the orders that a customer has placed and ignores filters, whereas I need one that ranks based on the filters that are active at any given time.
The current formula is:
CustOrderCountPersistant=RANKX(FILTER('Q1 Data Set',[k1_customer_id]=EARLIER([k1_customer_id])),[order_id],[order_id],1,DENSE)
For example, if I am looking at a full years worth of data and a customer has placed 10 orders in that period this formula will add a 1 in the column for first order, a 2 for the second and so forth all the way to 10, the last order.
However it will give me exactly the same results if I filter the data to just one month of that year where they may have order only 2 orders.
In this scenario I want to have another column with a table that is filter sensitive and would show 1 for the first order and 2 for the second order.
Now, I do understand that the issue here is probably the FILTER() I have on as, if I understand correctly, that means all other filters are ignored. My attempts at reworking the formula to remove this have been unsuccessful (such as using a CALCUALTE and trying to use filter properties within that forumula).
To explain the context - I want to create a measure that counts how many customers have placed x amount orders in y number of days e.g. how many customers have placed 2 orders in 30 days.

We are trying to compare our current calendar week (based on Monday being the first day of the week) with the previous calendar week.
I'm trying to produce a line chart with 2 axis:
- x axis; the day of the week (Mon, Tues, Wed etc - it is fine for this to be a # rather than text e.g. 1 = Mon, 2 = Tues etc)
- y axis; the cumulative number of orders
The chart needs two series:
Previous Week. The running count of orders placed that week.
Current Week. The running count of orders placed this week.
Obviously in such a chart the 'Current Week' series is going not going to have values along the whole axis until the end of the week. This is expected and the aim of the chart is to see the current week compares against the previous week for the same day.
I have two tables:
Orders TableCalendar Table
The calendar table's main date column is [calDate] and there are columns for the usual [calWeekNum], [calMonth] etc.
My measure for counting orders is simply; # Orders: = countrows[orders].
How do I take this measure and then work out my two series. I have tried numerous things such as adapting TOTALMTD(), following articles such as these:
- [URL] ...
- [URL] ...
But I have had no luck. The standard cumulative formulas do work e.g. if I wanted a MTD or YTD table I would be ok, it's just adjusting to a WTD that is causing me big issues.
What I'm looking to do is very much the image below. I need to bucket the DOS. I cannot do a calculation in a column because the DOS needs to recalculate based on filter changes or how graphs are setup. My DOS is a calculated field. When I try to create a calculated field to create the buckets I can't use it in a pivot table or powerview.

Hello,
How do I add unique values on the report? For example say I have this in my report:
Customer: Food Purchased: Amount:
Judy Cat Food $12
Sarah Dog Food $13.50
Diane Rabbit Food $17
Jason Dog Food $16
Tammy Dog Food $15
In the footer of the report I want to print a summary box that looks like this:
Product: Number Purchased: Total:
Cat Food 1 $12
Dog Food 3 $44.50
Rabbit Food 1 $17
How do I do this?
Thanks!
change the subscription subject on the report to Total or a field.
On the subscription Data Driven Subscription does not exist.
Is there any other way to fix it?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've imported a number of excel sheets into a Power Query Table. All seems to appear ok until I load the data. Of the 15k rows around 2k have a similar error where it cannot convert an integer to type string as below example
Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value 40 to type Text.
Details:
Value=40
Type=Type
The columns in question are all of integer type, I've looked through the M query and there is no conversion to string taking placeThe values where we don't get the error are also integers hence the intriguing question is why does the error occur on a subset and not the others. I suspect there is a limit to the number of errors also somewhere internally M query is converting the column to text for some reason.
Slow loading issue with an if statement. In the raw data the field [Location] is a text field e.g. 0010. I have a parameterised query that get a Location_Value from Excel and passes it to the PQ query using:
#"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Other Columns", each ([SalesMode] = 0) and ([SalesType] = 0) and ([Location] = Location_Value))
This works fine if you chose a single location. However I wanted to be able to select all locations and text is horrible to work with so in PQ I used the change type function to change the location column into whole numbers. I changed excel to also pass a number as Location_Value. I was therefore surprised when the same query took 2.5 times longer to refresh????
My PQ now looks like this
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Removed Other Columns",{{"Location", Int64.Type}}),
#"Filtered Rows1" = Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each ([SalesMode] = 0) and ([SalesType] = 0) and ([Location] = Location_Value))
I'm wondering if I need to do something to the ([Location] = Location_Value) bit as maybe it still thinks [Loation] is text and it is trying to compare it to a number. I st assumed the step above meant that [Location] was now a number, but maybe you still have wrap it with some kind of VALUES or TEXT function?
