Calculate time per day based between two dates

Hi All, 

 

I am a bit stuck in my process. I got a data set what shows me a start date & end date and the expected hours that I would spend on a taks. 

 

Now I want to know how much time I would spend on a day on that task. I have tried a 100 of things. But Im not able to get the data correct visable for a grafic.

 

Task NumberStart dayEnd DateBudget Hours
0000111101-02-202205-02-202210
0000111201-01-202205-01-202215
0000111318-03-202210-04-202230
0000111415-06-202223-06-202250


So what I want to have is this. 

Task NumberDateHour Per Day
0000111101-02-20222
0000111102-02-20222
0000111103-02-20222
0000111104-02-20222
0000111105-02-20222
0000111201-01-20223
0000111202-01-20223
0000111203-01-20223
0000111204-01-20223

@amitchandak thanks for your help and response. It partly helped. 

The only issue that I still have it that is counting all the days. For us Saturday and Sunday is a weekend day and not a working day. So need to exclude them.

 

Below you can see the Measure that I have used.

 

Hours Per Working day = CALCULATE(
SUMX(
SUMMARIZE(
filter(
CROSSJOIN('Ticket','Calendar Table'),
'Calendar Table'[Date] >= 'Ticket'[Start Date] &&
'Calendar Table'[Date]<= 'Ticket'[End Date])
, 'Ticket'[Number]
, 'Calendar Table'[Date]
, 'Ticket'[Budget Hours]
, 'Ticket'[Start Date]
, 'Ticket'[End Date])
, DIVIDE('Ticket'[Budget Hours]
,DATEDIFF ('Ticket'[Start Date],
'Ticketing Tool''Ticket'[End Date],day)
+1)
)
)
