Create line chart based on data from measures

Hi,

I am trying to save time on copy data from Power BI to PP by creating this line chart:

galavichid_0-1704144427304.png

Each dot, present BWH % calculated by a measure based on another measure which calculated data from excel sheets:

 

BWH SBN-C1 =
VAR Total_Hours =
    SUMX(
        'SBN-C1',
        HOUR('SBN-C1'[TotalTime]) + DIVIDE(MINUTE('SBN-C1'[TotalTime]),60) + DIVIDE(SECOND('SBN-C1'[TotalTime]),3600)
    )
VAR DaysTotal = DIVIDE(Total_Hours,24)
VAR HoursTotal = (DaysTotal)*24
VAR HoursInt = TRUNC(HoursTotal)
VAR MinutesTotal = (HoursTotal - HoursInt)*60
VAR MinutesInt = TRUNC(MinutesTotal)
VAR SecondsTotal = ROUND((MinutesTotal - MinutesInt)*60,0)
RETURN
    DIVIDE(Total_Hours, 576)

 

 

The solution i am looking for, is how to show the BWH of all sites, of the same month + the month before.

If i slice let say September, Ill get the BWH from each site of the month of September, and another line of August.

Any suggestion will be welcome 🙂

 

Thanks!

Hi @galavichid ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) We can create a Date Table.

DateTable = ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR(DATE(2023,1,1),DATE(2023,12,31)),"year",YEAR([Date]),"month",MONTH([Date]))

(2) We can create a measure. 

BWH Previous Month = 
   CALCULATE(
       [BWH %],
       DATEADD('DateTable'[Date], -1, MONTH)
   )

(3) Then the result is as follows.

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.
