Hello everybody,
I really hope you can help me with this problem, which seems pretty complicated for me.
What I want to to is split the weightamount out on different month in the furture based on the expected number of hours.
I have following distribution key for expected hours:
0-500 = 2 month
500-1500 = 4 month
1500 - 4000 = 6 month
4000 - above = 8 month.
So forexample: in the above observation the start date is 01/05 and expected hours of 6,48 therefore weightamount should be split over 2 month -> Month 5 = 2592 and Month 6 = 2592.
Anyone who have a solution to this, or can point me in the right direction? Should i maybe create a seperate calendar table?
Important note: If it is the first of the month then it should be allocated to that month. So for the above exapmle because it is the first of the monst (01/05) then it should be allocated to month 5 and 6, but if the start date wat 07/05 then i should have been allocated to month 6 and 7.
The final output should be a graph like this, so i can see how many hours we expect to have en the future:
Thanks!
let's start with the number of months
add the following table
Low | High | Months |
0 | 500 | 2 |
500 | 1500 | 4 |
1500 | 4000 | 6 |
4000 | 99999999 | 8 |
and add following calculated column to your table
NrOfMonths =
VAR __expected = 'Table'[Expected Hours]
VAR __relevantSplit =
FILTER ( 'Split', __expected > 'Split'[Low] && __expected <= 'Split'[High] )
RETURN
CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Split'[Months] ), __relevantSplit )
It should give you the expected number of months for each row. If you can add the table using M then we can also replace 99999999 with +infinity
now for the allocation - do you want to create a calculated table, or are you looking for a measure that would assign the values to particular dates?
