Absence Stats Help

I have 3 tables

 

1 Employee table contains Employee ID & Employee Name

1 Employee Job table contains Employee ID, Job Description, Start Date, End Date, Contracted Hours

1 Absence table contains Employee ID, Date Absent, Hours absent

 

Im looking how I can display a table showing all employees employed by month showing total hours contracted and next to these any applicable hours lost for the employee.

 

I need to let the user filter by month & year and preferrably report for the whole year or parts of the year. 

 

Im really struggling with this as it deals with start and end dates and not just one date field. 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

@Hutchisoni you need to break down your employee job table by date which can be done in power query and then it is easier. here is an example on how to break down by date.

 

Let me know if you need further help.
