Cumulative Using Summarized Data by x-axis visualizations

Hello everyone, 

 

I've the follow table with summarized data, but it's working fine with a table, but I want to show the column Open_Tickets by Calendar in x-axis visualization, this is possible?

 

This is my DAX code:

 

Total_Open_Tickets =
var TempTable =
SUMMARIZE
(
Date_Link,
Date_Link[Calendar],
"Created_Tickets",CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation")),
"Closed_Tickets",CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure")),
"Daily_Open_Tickets",
CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation"))
-
CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure"))
)
VAR LastDay =
MAX ( Date_Link[Calendar] )
VAR TempTable2 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
TempTable,
"Open_Tickets",
var _date = [Calendar]
return
SUMX(
FILTER(
TempTable,
[Calendar]<=_date
),
[Daily_Open_Tickets]
)
)
RETURN
TempTable2
 
This is the format of TempTable2:

How can I do it?

Try this code please:

Total_Open_Tickets = 
VAR TempTable =
    SUMMARIZE (
        Date_Link,
        Date_Link[Calendar],
        "Created_Tickets",
            CALCULATE (
                COUNT ( Date_Link[id] ),
                FILTER ( Date_Link, Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation" )
            ),
        "Closed_Tickets",
            CALCULATE (
                COUNT ( Date_Link[id] ),
                FILTER ( Date_Link, Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure" )
            ),
        "Daily_Open_Tickets",
            CALCULATE (
                COUNT ( Date_Link[id] ),
                FILTER ( Date_Link, Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation" )
            )
                - CALCULATE (
                    COUNT ( Date_Link[id] ),
                    FILTER ( Date_Link, Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure" )
                )
    )
VAR LastDay =
    MAX ( Date_Link[Calendar] )
VAR TempTable2 =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        TempTable,
        "Open_Tickets",
            VAR _date = [Calendar]
            RETURN
                SUMX ( FILTER ( TempTable, [Calendar] <= _date ), [Daily_Open_Tickets] )
    )
RETURN
   
ADDCOLUMNS(
    TempTable2,
    "Cummulative", 
    SUMX( FILTER(TempTable2, Date_Link[Calendar] <= EARLIER(Date_Link[Calendar])), [Daily_Open_Tickets])
)

Do you still need the OPEN_TICKETS column? If not, change the code after the RETURN as below and try.

ADDCOLUMNS(
    TempTable,
    "Cummulative", 
    SUMX( FILTER(TempTable, Date_Link[Calendar] <= EARLIER(Date_Link[Calendar])), [Daily_Open_Tickets])
)

 
You may share a PBIX file with sample data or an excel sample file to test the same.

You can save your files in OneDrive, Google Drive, or any other cloud sharing platforms and share the link here.

But the code you have sent is the same.

@HugoJesus 

I replaced TempTable2 with TempTable.

How can I post the PBIX?

Hi @Fowmy 

 

I've found how to share the PBIX, is now available to download, in the below link.

@HugoJesus 

You have tried to add the code as a new column. You need to add it as a new table. Go to Modeling Tabl > New Table and paste it. I see the Cumulative Total coming up. I added it as a new Table

Yes, I understand that and if you saw the PBIX, already exist a table with that code "Total_Open_Tickets".

 

But, my idea is to have an x-axis visualizations with that column, instead of a table.

 

Something like this, but with that column "Open_Tickets".

 

If look up to the example (image below), you saw two lines, the bottom line (Open_Tickets) that's the correct value but inserted manually, and the second line I'm using the code that you have sent but unsing in a Measure.

@HugoJesus 

Sorry, I did not understand what sort of visualization you are after.
Below is your data, now can you explain how the expected result should come out?

My idea is only to show the column "Open_Tickets" in a x-axix visualization by Calendar.

 

Did you understand?

 

Thanks.

@HugoJesus , Your table structure is not clear.

 

I have a blog on a similar topic : https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/HR-Analytics-Active-Employee-Hire-and-Termination-tr...

 

And cumulative of open(current employee added to file attached after signature .

 

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

Hi,

 

This is a different level and my idea is to have the "Open_Tickets" in Area Chart by date.

 

The code that I'm using is the same that you have sent before, but a little different at the end.


Create a Measure:

 

Total_Open_Tickets =
var TempTable =
SUMMARIZE
(
Date_Link,
Date_Link[Calendar],
"Created_Tickets",CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation")),
"Closed_Tickets",CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure")),
"Daily_Open_Tickets",
CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Creation"))
-
CALCULATE(count(Date_Link[id]),FILTER(Date_Link,Date_Link[Date_Type] = "Closure"))
)
VAR TempTable2 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
TempTable,
"Open_Tickets",
var _date = Date_Link[Calendar]
return
SUMX(
FILTER(
TempTable,
Date_Link[Calendar]<=_date
),
[Daily_Open_Tickets]
)
)
return
SUMX(TempTable2,[Open_Tickets])
 
The result of this. .. is only showing the "Daily_Open_Tickets" instead of "Open_Tickets".
At below, as you can see the "Open_Tickets" is the correct value and "Total_Open_Tickets" is the Measure that I've asked for help before, both are different.
The "Total_Open_Tickets" is showing the "Daily_Open_Tickets" instead of cumulative.

Any idea how to solve this.
