Cumulative total between two dates in monthly allocation

Hello, I m trying to figure out formula to display monthly total between two dates for one record. Data sample:

CUSTOMERSTART DATEEND DATEMONTHLY GP
9955527/01/202027/04/202010
9977809/01/202027/08/202020
9981601/04/202027/10/202015
711115/04/202027/10/202010
714710/04/202031/12/202015
71501/04/202027/08/202030

 

Result should be

CUSTOMERSTART DATEEND DATEMONTHLY GP2020-012020-022020-032020-042020-052020-062020-072020-082020-092020-102020-112020-12
9955527/01/202027/04/20201010101010        
9977809/01/202027/08/2020202020202020202020    
9981601/04/202027/10/202015   15151515151515  
711115/04/202027/10/202010   10101010101010  
714710/04/202031/12/202015   151515151515151515
71501/04/202027/08/202030   3030303030    

 

Ideally it would be 

CumulativeBetweenDates:=TOTALYTD(SUM(Opportunity[BaseYear_MonthAGP]),
'Calendar'[Day],USERELATIONSHIP([START DATE],'Calendar'[Day]),[END DATE]])

Unfortunatelly last parameter is a string and can't be used in this manner. 

This would be run on SSAS threfore some limitations are in place(Direct Query, VAR not available)

Pointing to right direction would be appriciated

 

Thanks in advance 

Michal

Hello @v-alq-msft  and @amitchandak ,

Thanks for your support on this. Unfortunately both of the solutions did not solve calculation in SSAS environment but taking under consideration both comments and advice from local guru I came to above which did allocate GP across months.   

 

CumulativeBetweenDates:=CALCULATE(
	SUM(Customer[DAY_AGP]),
	FILTER(CALCULATETABLE(Customer,ALL('Calendar')),
		Customer[START_DATE] <=MAX('Calendar'[Day])&&
		Customer[END_DATE]>MIN('Calendar'[Day])
				))

Hi, @Mich_J 

 

Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario. The pbix file is attached in the end.

Table:

c1.png

 

Calendar(a calculated table):

Calendar = CALENDARAUTO()

 

There is no relationship between two tables. You may create three calculated columns and a measure as below.

Calculated column:
Year-Month = VALUE(FORMAT('Calendar'[Date],"yyyymm"))
StartYearMonth = VALUE(FORMAT('Table'[START DATE],"yyyymm"))
EndYearMonth = VALUE(FORMAT('Table'[END DATE],"yyyymm"))

Measure:
Result = 
var _cYearMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendar'[Year-Month])
var _startYearMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[StartYearMonth])
var _endYearMonth = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[EndYearMonth])
return 
IF(
    _cYearMonth>=_startYearMonth&&_cYearMonth<=_endYearMonth,
    SUM('Table'[MONTHLY GP])
)

 

Result:

Hi @Mich_J ,

 

thanks for sharing this. 

It solved my requirement.

@Mich_J , I did not get what you want to give the last parameter. You need to tell where year is going to end. In case it end at 12/31 no need for that. It is optional.

like

TOTALYTD(SUM(Opportunity[BaseYear_MonthAGP]),
'Calendar'[Day],USERELATIONSHIP([START DATE],'Calendar'[Day]),"12/31")

 

TOTALYTD(SUM(Opportunity[BaseYear_MonthAGP]),
'Calendar'[Day],USERELATIONSHIP([START DATE],'Calendar'[Day]),"3/31") // Year ending March

@amitchandak This has to be dynamic parameter and its different for each record to achieve total between two dates therefore above won’t work. It needs to be time intelligence calculation but I cant find any references on web. Most calculations would work to summarise for each month based on date in one column. Where in here I would like to present monthly cumulative between two dates.

@amitchandak I will try to evaluate your solution futher but taking my requirement and your example you would like to show 

 

EmployeeStartEnd2020-1 2020-2 2020-3 2020-4 2020-5 2020-6 2020-7
A03/03/2020 03/05/20200011100
B10/02/202004/04/20200111000
          

 

Will your calculations cover this view?
