Counting active users, joiners & leavers

Hello everyone, I'm relatively new to PowerBI, and I've done a fair amount of research and tried different approaches without success. The idea is to show how many people joined the company in a particular month, how many left, and the number of active users in a specific month/year.

I have a table with user information with columns id, start date, and end date, and I want to create a clustered column chart with three categories:
- users with a start date in the current month named "Joiners".
- users with an end date in the current month named "Leavers".
- users with a start date before the current month and an end date blank named "Active".

 

Data looks like this, when an user is still active, then End Date is blank.

ID                    Start Date                 End Date

1312313           01/23/2020              12/24/2021 
1231231           08/15/2021              09/01/2022
2534556           12/20/2022                      
4356546           01/01/2023               04/20/2023

2534556           10/12/2021
4356546           02/13/2020               


This is an example of what I'm trying to get. Would you help me with that or point me in the right direction? Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Hello johan-svitla 

    How would you define current month, Will you be using a slicer? 

    Also if start_date & end_date falls on current month, What would be the status.

     

    Regards,

    Naveen

      Hi. Yes, the slicer would be my choice. If someone joined and left in the same month should be counted in both joiners and leavers.

       

      Regards and thanks for your interest
