Complex Date Calculation

Hi Community,

 

I have a following weird case in which I needed some assistance. My "Date" dimension is connected to the StartDate in the table below. My table looks like this : -

 

WorkIDStartDateEndDateType
11/1/20141/5/2017Rejected
27/7/2015 Active
34/4/20165/7/2017Closed
42/9/2017 Active

 

Now, I need to calculate the total of the "Active Cases" for the past 5 years by month. The tricky part is that all the "Rejected" cases need to be counted as "Active" for the months between StartDate and EndDate. Any workaround for this?
