Cumulative Forecast - S Curve Chart Data

I have followed Sam's tutorial

https://blog.enterprisedna.co/how-to-calculate-a-cumulative-run-rate-in-power-bi-using-dax/

 

Ideally I need a filter or IF statement where if Actual ISNOTBLANK then Forecast value should equal 0, while still keeping the cumulative sum. Essentiall creating an S-Curve data chart (I have placed the AvgRate and my cumulative measure below the forecast measure)

Essentially what I want to do in power bi is link the actual line and forecast line together, changing table 1 to table 2 (see below tables).

I also have one other query which is to not add the ‘avg daily actual’ to the ‘cumulative forecast’ IF another column, that being ‘Target (hard coded value)’ is equal to zero, changing table 2 to table 3.

 

Forecast: **bleep** Forecast =

VAR AvgRate = [Avg Rate]

RETURN

CALCULATE(

SUMX(SUMMARIZE(DateTime_Table, DateTime_Table[Date], "Rate", AvgRate), [Rate]),

FILTER(ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table), DateTime_Table[Date]<=MAX(DateTime_Table[Date])))-AvgRate

 

 

 

Forecast: **bleep** Total Actual = CALCULATE([Actual],DATESMTD(DateTime_Table[Date]),

FILTER (

        ALL('Production_Data'[Date and Time]),

        'Production_Data'[Date and Time] <= MAX ( 'Production_Data'[Date and Time])

    ))

 

 

Forecast: Avg. Daily Actual =

VAR DaysWithActual = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(DateTime_Table[Date]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table),[Actual]>0))

VAR CumulativeTotal = CALCULATE([Forecast: **bleep** Total Actual], ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table[Date]))

RETURN

DIVIDE(CumulativeTotal,DaysWithActual,0)

 

 

Thanks

    Hi johnnyboy_175 ,

    Could you please help check whether the below understanding is correct or not?

    1. You want to get two fields: [Forecast] and [Target (cumulitive)]?

    2. The calculation logic of these fields as below:

    Forecast= if ( the value of field [Daily Actual] is not blank, blank(),[Forecast]+[Run rate])
    [Target (cumulitive)]=if( [Target (hard coded value)]is blank, not culmulative, cumulitive+Target (hard coded value))

    3. The first value of [Forecast] 6897 and [Target (cumulitive)] 10688 is default value or the value from the calculation?

    If my understanding is correct, here are some similar threads, you can refer them to get it.

    Cumulative sum by date by condition

    Cumulative sum with condition

    Best Regards

    Rena

    Hi Rena, I have compiled the measures, my problem is I want the forecast measure to be conditional on the target (specifically if the target (grey column) is 0 for the day, do not add the run rate (blue) to the forecast (orange), similar to distinctcount).

    Another issue is that it does not start at day 1, see yellow highlighted cell. I have c&ped my measures down the bottom for your ref. any help appreciated.

    The picture is a data export of my current measures from power bi.

     

    Actual = CALCULATE(SUM('Actuals'[Actuals A)+SUM(Actuals B]))

     

    Cumulitive Actual = CALCULATE([Actual],DATESMTD(DateTime_Table[Date]),

    FILTER (

    ALL('Production_Data'[Date and Time]),

    'Production_Data'[Date and Time] <= MAX ( 'Production_Data'[Date and Time])

    ))

     

    Average Daily =

    VAR DaysWithActual = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(DateTime_Table[Date]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table),[Actual)]>0))

    VAR CumulativeTotal = CALCULATE([Cumulitive Actual], ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table[Date]))

    RETURN

    DIVIDE(CumulativeTotal,DaysWithActual,0)

     

    Target Daily = SUM(Production_Targets[Total Concentrate Target (t/shift)])

     

    Cumulititve Forecast =

    VAR AvgRate = [Run Rate]

    RETURN

    CALCULATE(

    SUMX(SUMMARIZE(DateTime_Table, DateTime_Table[Date], "RunRate", AvgRate), [RunRate]),

    FILTER(ALLSELECTED(DateTime_Table), DateTime_Table[Date]<=MAX(DateTime_Table[Date])))-AvgRate
