Hi, i need help with a tough calculation i have to do.
I have customers and these customers have bookings lasting several days or even month. So each booking has a start and an end. And i have two different types of bookings, lets say A and B.
I want to calculate for each day how many customers I have with only A bookings, with only B bookings and with A and B bookings.
Bookingdata could look like this
Customer | Booking Type | Start | End |
1 | A | 01.01.2020 | 01.01.2022 |
1 | A | 03.01.2022 | 03.01.2022 |
1 | B | 03.012022 | 05.01.2022 |
2 | B | 01.01.2022 | 01.01.2022 |
2 | B | 01.01.2022 | 01.01.2022 |
2 | B | 03.01.2022 | 03.01.2022 |
Result should be
Day | A-Type Customers | B-Type Customers | AB-Type Customers |
01.01.2022 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
02.01.2022 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
03.01.2022 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
04.01.2022 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
05.01.2022 | 0 | 1 | 0 |
I also have a customers table and a date table as dimensions.
I managed to measure customers of a and b type seperately without taking into account if they have both with for example for A:
Calculate(Distinctcount(Customer),Filter(all(Bookingdata), Start<= Day && End >= Day && Booking Type = A))
But that way I cannot count only those with both A and B and these are counted double if I count A and B seperately.
Hope someone can help out. Thanks!
Hi @amitchandak , thank you but that I already manged even with connected table. My Problem is that every ID has multiple entries with two diofferent states. And I want to count per day: How many with state A, how many with state B and most importantly how many with A and B without counting them double!
@H3nning , Create a disconnected date table, means do not join with your table
Then create a measure and use along with date from date table in visual
Calculate(distinctcount(Bookingdata[Customer]), filter(Bookingdata, Bookingdata[Start] >= Max(Date[Date]) && Bookingdata[END] >= Max(Date[Date]) ))
