Forecasting payment date with calculated average

Hi all,

 

I could use some help with calculating a forecasted paymentdate of our customers. I have calculated the average paymentterm from the past payments. Average paymentterm = DATEDIFF (Boekingen[Boekdatum}.{Date};Boekingen{Betalingsdatum}{Date};Day). This formula gives me an average per customer.

In the new formula a want to calculate the outstanding invoices per Invoice belonging to a customer.

CustomerInvoice numberInvoice datePayment dateDays untill paidAverage paymenttermExpected payment date
1101-01-202005-01-202056 
1201-01-202007-01-202076 
1305-01-2020  611-01-2020
2401-01-202030-01-20203018 
2502-01-202007-01-2020618 
2610-01-2020  1828-01-2020
3715-01-202030-01-20201515 
3801-02-2020  1516-02-2020
 

Could you help me with the right formula?

 

Kind regards,

  • Hi, ManPi 

     

    There are two ways.

    First way: You may create a calculated column and a measure as follows.

    Average paymentterm Column = 
    CALCULATE(
            AVERAGE('Table'[Days paid]),
            FILTER(
                ALLSELECTED('Table'),
                'Table'[Customer] = EARLIER('Table'[Customer])&&
                NOT ISBLANK('Table'[Payment date])
            )
    )
    
    Expected payment date = 
    var _value = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Average paymentterm Column]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Table'),
            'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
        )
    )-
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Days paid]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Table'),
            'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
        )
    )
    
    return
    IF(
        ISBLANK(MAX('Table'[Payment date])),
        MAX('Table'[Invoice date])+_value,
        BLANK()
    )

     

    Second way: You may create two measures as below.

    Average paymentterm Measure = 
    CALCULATE(
            AVERAGE('Table'[Days paid]),
            FILTER(
                ALLSELECTED('Table'),
                'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])&&
                NOT ISBLANK('Table'[Payment date])
            )
    )
    
    Expected payment date Measure = 
    var _value = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUMX(
            FILTER(
                ALLSELECTED('Table'),
                'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
            ),
            [Average paymentterm Measure]
        )
    )-
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Days paid]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Table'),
            'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
        )
    )
    
    return
    IF(
        ISBLANK(MAX('Table'[Payment date])),
        MAX('Table'[Invoice date])+_value,
        BLANK()
    )

     

    Result:

      Hi Greg,

       

      In my example I want to calculate the last two colums.

       

      Kind regards,

    Hi, ManPi 

     

    Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario.

     

    You may create a measure as follows.

    Expected payment date = 
    var _value = 
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Average paymentterm]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Table'),
            'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
        )
    )-
    CALCULATE(
        SUM('Table'[Days paid]),
        FILTER(
            ALLSELECTED('Table'),
            'Table'[Customer] = MAX('Table'[Customer])
        )
    )
    
    return
    IF(
        ISBLANK(MAX('Table'[Payment date])),
        MAX('Table'[Invoice date])+_value,
        BLANK()
    )

     

    Finally you may use a table visual to display the result.

      Dear Allan,

       

      Thank you for your replay. At this point the formula shows a blank collum. Could you send me a measure for the Average paymentterm? It isn't given in the raw data, but it should be a calculated number.

      I think the problem starts there, because i don't see the average per customer on the individual lines per Invoice.

       

      Kind regards,

      Sorry for the late reply, but due to the developments with the Coronavirus I didn't had the time to try your solution any sooner.

       

      Thanks for your help. It was the right solution.
