Create a match in two tables based on previous and current month

Hi everyone!

 

I have two tables, one with the creation date of client accounts:

Client ID, Creation date

 

The second table includes created assignements:

Client ID, Assignment ID, Assignment creation date

 

What I want to do is to calculate the percentage of clients who created their account in previous month who placed an assignment in current month. I also want to calculate the average time from account registration to first creation of assignment.

 

Anyone got any suggestions on how to solve this?

 

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi @ny326n,

First, please create a relationship between the table.

Second, in second table, you create a calculated column using RELATED function as the following formula.

create-date=RELATED(Table1[Creation date])


Third, create another calculated column using the formula, which shows if the account was created in previous month.

flag=IF(MONTH(Assignment creation date)-MONTH(create-date)>=1,"Yes","No")


Create a measure to calculate the percentage of clients who created their account in previous month who placed an assignment in current month.

Percentage=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Table2[ClientID]),FILTER(Table2,Table[flag]="Yes"))/CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(Table2[ClientID]),ALL(Table2))


>>I also want to calculate the average time from account registration to first creation of assignment.

Create a calculated to get the difference using the formula.

difference=Table2[create-date]-Table2[Assignment creation date]

Create a measure using the formula.

Average=AVERAGE(Table2[difference])
