Summarizing Continuous Date Ranges

maart666 — Mon, 22 Nov 2021 10:08:26 GMT

Hello,

I have a base with employee absences. After returning to work after 30 continuous absences, the employee must be sent for an examination. Some employees have several lines with absences, if the date of the beginning of the next absence is equal to the date of the end of the previous absence + 1, I have to sum up such absences.

unfortunately, Saturdays and Sundays are sometimes subtracted in these ranges:

Ideally, the table in the report should only show employees who have had a continuous absence of 30 days or more.

I attach the file in PBI.

Thank you in advance.

Marcin

maart666 , Using this blog, you should get new start and new end date, when there is split

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Power-BI-Continuous-Streak-With-One-Day-Break/ba-p/1290346

Now using the distinct of that using summarize , calculate work day using calendar

Sumx(Addcolumns(Summarize(Table, Table[Employee], Table[New Start], New[End Date]) , "_1", COUNTROWS(FILTER(ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR([New Start Date],[New End Date]),"WorkDay", if(WEEKDAY([Date],2) <6,1,0)),[WorkDay] =1)) ), [_1])

Thank you amitchandak!

for the first part works perfekt!

But when but are you able to help with the solution when the days when absences are not entered as a continuous range, but only for working days. The range starts on Monday and ends on Friday.
So as a continuity I have to treat the Friday date and the date of the next Monday.

Thank you!
