Hi all, I am trying to calculate Projected Attrtion Rate using the formula
Projected Attrition Rate = Cumulative Attrition Rate/# Cumulative Months in the Period * 12 months
i.e. : [(Jan+Feb+Mar)/3]*12 = [(0.61%+0.25%+0.8%)/3]*12
The Attrition Rate Overall use in the table is:
DIVIDE(COUNT('Headcount'[Attrition Date]), DISTINCTCOUNT('Headcount '[Emp No.]))
Need some help to apply the formula into powerbi. Any help or reference? Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Then you can iterate over a summarized calendar with your measure as follows:
Attrition Rate =
CALCULATE (
AVERAGEX (
ADDCOLUMNS (
SUMMARIZE ( 'Calendar', 'Calendar'[Date] ),
"AttritionRate", [Attrition Rate]
),
[AttritionRate]
),
DATESYTD ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
) * 12
The way we can write the synatx could vary depending on your data structure. I assume that you have a calendar table.
Attrition Rate =
CALCULATE (
AVERAGEX ( 'Headcount', Headcount[Attrition Rate] ),
DATESYTD ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
) * 12
Thank you @Mohammad_Refaei
However, my Attrition Rate is actually a measure. Which I cannot apply averagex on it. Any advice on this?
