Hello!
I need to calculate the hours all my employees have worked, given date columns and their employment percentage. 100 % employment is 37.5 hours weekly. Therefor hours = employment_percentage * 0.375
In this dataset we have two employees.
emp_id | __START_AT | __END_AT | employment_percentage | unit_id |
| 1 | 01.01.2023 | 15.01.2023 | 100 % | 500 |
| 1 | 15.01.2023 | 90 % | 501 | |
| 2 | 01.01.2023 | 15.01.2023 | 100 % | 500 |
| 2 | 15.01.2023 | 31.01.2023 | 50 % | 500 |
Employee 1 worked 15 days for department 500, but is currently working for department 501.
Employee 2 also worked 15 days for department 501, but lowered his employment to 50 % for the remaining month and quit.
amount_hours_worked =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( table[employment_percentage] ) * 0.375 * [MISSING CODE],
AND (
table[__START_AT] <= MAX ( dim_date[Date] ),
OR ( table[__END_AT] > MIN ( 'dim_date'[Date] ), ISBLANK ( table[__END_AT] )
)))
Could anyone help me solve this one?
I believe I have it almost solved. I added a dim_date table in the solution.
hours_worked =
VAR _maxdate = MAX(dim_date[Date])
VAR _start = min('table'[__START_AT])
VAR _end = IF(ISBLANK(SELECTEDVALUE('table'[__END_AT])), _maxdate, max('table'[__END_AT]))
RETURN
CALCULATE (DATEDIFF(_start, _end, DAY) * ( SELECTEDVALUE('table'[employment_percentage]) * 7.5))
