Measure: Rolling Active Users
Hi,
I have a data table tracking employees internal moves between departments.
| Name | Department | Start Date | End Date |
| [Employee Name] | [Department Name] | [First Day in Department] | [Last Day in Department - NULL IF ACTIVE] |
I'm now trying to create a measure to give me the average number of people working in a department at any given date (so that it'll work at date, month, and year level). Essentially this should just be a count of any record where the start date is less than or equal to the date, AND the end date is more than the date OR null.
I have a calendar table, but haven't created a relationship with this one yet as I'm unsure how to do this as I want to consider both Date columns in the calculation.
Is this something that's easily achievable?
Thanks,
Toby
Hi,
Please try the below measure.
Create a table visualization, and add one of columns from a calendar table (year, month, week, or date column).
And then add the below measure into the table visualization.
Employees count measure: = CALCULATE ( COUNTROWS ( VALUES ( Table[Name] ) ), FILTER ( Table, Table[Start Date] <= MAX ( Calendar[Date] ) && OR ( Table[End Date] >= MIN ( Calendar[Date] ), Table[End Date] = BLANK () ) ) )
