Different date value counts
- 9 years ago
Hi jpmeijinhos,
I could think out the following way to calculate the wanted value in only one table, which would need some transformation of the table you shared, please follow the steps below and see if it could help here:
1. Open Power BI desktop, under the home tab, click Edit Queries to open Query Editor, press Ctrl and select Created and Resolved columns, under Transform tab, click Unpivot column, then under home tab of Query Editor, click Close and Apply.
2. Rename the Attribute and the value column to Status and Date, verify the Date column type is Date/time;
3. Create the measure below:
IssueCreated := countx( filter('Table', 'Table'[Attribute]="Created"), 'Table'[Issue])IssueResolved = countx( filter('Table', 'Table'[Attribute]="Resolved"), 'Table'[Issue])backlog = CALCULATE ( [IssueCreated]-[IssueResolved], FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table'[Value]), 'Table'[Value]<= MAX ( 'Table'[Value]) ) )Please see the screenshots:
If you need any further help regarding this method, please post back.
Regards
Hello!
Thanks a lot, created and resolved are working very well.
The problem still remains with the "backlog".
The backlog is currently showing "per day" and it would need to be the total SUM of unresolved issues on a specific day plus the remainder of the day before.
Like so:
| Date | Created | Resolved | Backlog |
| 26/06/2016 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
| 27/06/2016 | 5 | 3 | 3 |
| 28/06/2016 | 4 | 5 | 2 |
| 29/06/2016 | 6 | 2 | 6 |
Hi jpmeijinhos,
The measure of the backlog I have shared should work in this way.
I just created some extra testing data:
Could you please share the issue you encountered when using this measure, or the wrong results?

Thanks again for replying.
I've checked and your measure works for me when I see the data in a matrix:
(Date = Value, language is portuguese, sorry)
The problem happens when I apply a columns chart over it:
It doesn't reflect the matrix numbers, it counts the days seperatly.
I can't seem to find a way for the data to be "cumulative" in the backlog.
Thanks for the help!

Replying again after doing another check!
I had the days separated in the shared axis of the chart...
It works like a charm now!
Thanks a lot for your help! You were great!
