Days in stock to zero

Hello,

 

I'm trying to create the following table in PowerBI. It should work as following:

 

 JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOktNovDec
Starting Inventory20.00025.00035.00025.00035.00040.00045.00055.00045.00025.00045.00035.000
Production10.00020.00015.00030.00040.00050.00040.00030.00040.00040.00030.00025.000
Sales (forecast)5.00010.00025.00020.00035.00045.00030.00040.00060.00020.00040.00030.000
Closing Inventory25.00035.00025.00035.00040.00045.00055.00045.00025.00045.00035.00030.000
             
5. Sales (forecast) per day            
6. Days in stock (to zero)            

 

1. Starting inventory = StockCount[StockCount] if the month is in the past and it should be equal to the Closing Inventory for the future.

 

2. Production = Production[Production]

3. Sales (forecast) = Sales Actuals[sales(actuals)] if the month is in the past and it should be Sales Forecast[sales(forecast)] if the month is currently active or in the future.

 

4. Closing Inventory = Starting inventory + Production - Sales (forecast)

 

5. Sales (forecast) per day = Sales (forecast) / days of that specific month

 

6. Days in stock (to zero) = Starting inventory / (sales (forecast) per day that month + all months after till 0).

Example for January: 20.000 / (sales all january (5.000) + sales all february (10.000) + sales march (5.000 out of 25.000 in total). 

So: 20.000 / sales jan, feb + 1/5 march 

 

I can't share the PBIX file here yet, since I am a fairly new member. However, I can share the file by WeTransfer: https://we.tl/t-OmfofN6WoQ
