Calculating Employee Productivity

Dear community members,

 

Need your expert help in the following situation.

I have three tables: Hours, Employee, and Project.

 

The Hours table contains the hours details by each employee for a week:

Each employee has a weekly base hours:

Model:

The objective is to caclulate the Utilization% for multiple dimensions (by employee, by department, etc.), and analyze the trend 

 

The formula for utilization% is as follows: DIVIDE([Productive Hours]/[Effective Base Hours])

 

Where Productive Hours = SUM('Employee Hours'[Hours]) excluding certain Tasks (Say Task 3, 19 & 44)

and Effective Base Hours = SUM(Employee [Base Hours]) excluding certain Tasks (Say Task 3, 19 & 44) 

 

In case of any mid-week joining/separation, the Base hours should be pro-rated accordingly.

Hi @Anonymous ,

use these measures:
 Productive Hours = CALCULATE(SUM('Employee Hours'[Hours]), FILTER(Table_name, Task <> "Task 3" ||  Task <> "Task 19" || Task <> "Task 44"))

 

Effective Base Hours =CALCULATE(SUM(Employee [Base Hours]), FILTER(Table_name, Task <> "Task 3" ||  Task <> "Task 19" || Task <> "Task 44"))

 

 

Utilization %= DIVIDE([Productive Hours],[Effective Base Hours])        .....format this to percentage.

 

 

I hope this helps!

 

Mark this as a solution if I answered your question. Kudos are always appreciated!

Thanks.
