Good afternoon,
I am new to Power BI but quite experienced at Excel - I need a quick hand to better wrap my mind around the intricacies of PowerBI.
I am looking to calculate capacity utilization for a set of resources in a team. Capacity utilization is calculated as (billable time / total time).
Let's assume I have the following data:
| Period | Resource | Total Time | Billable Time |
| January | Jack | 10 | 3 |
| January | Jill | 15 | 2 |
| February | Jack | 10 | 3 |
| February | Jill | 15 | 7 |
| March | Jack | 10 | 9 |
| March | Jill | 15 | 7 |
| April | Jack | 10 | 9 |
| April | Jill | 15 | 9 |
I am looking to automate a drill down from one number for the entire team for the entire year (total utilization rate for Jack & Jill for January - April, which would be 49 / 100) to a number for the team by month (5 / 25 for January, 10 / 25 for February, 16 / 25 for March, 18 / 25 for April) to a number by individual by month 30% for Jack in January, etc.).
It seems rather straightforward, but somehow, I am coming up short.
Thank you for your help,
Philippe
Solved! Go to Solution.
You may use Matrix visual, drag [Period] and [Resource] to Rows and add measure below.
Measure = DIVIDE ( SUM ( Table1[Billable Time] ), SUM ( Table1[Total Time] ) )
