Hi,

So im making a dashboard for our installers.

 

Each project has a revenue, cost (hours for each installer) and materials.

Now i want to see how much profit we get on each project, and in general for each installer.

 

to show an example.

project X ,

revenue 1000€

cost installer 1 = 300

cost installer 2= 250

materials = 350

 

So for this project i have 900 total cost and 1000 revenue. 

 

now when i select installer 1 and i look at this project i have only the cost of installer 1, so 650 cost - 1000 revenue

when i select installer 2 i get total 600 cost revenue 1000, 

wich is incorrect.

 

any ideas?

Hi @YvesL ,

 

In this scenario,  I’m confused how much materials for each installer. Is it that each installers spend 350 for materials or all installers spend a total of 350?  And I create a sample that each installers spend 350. If I understand incorrectly , please post the sample data and the expected output.

 

  1. Create a calculated column.

profit = Table1[revenue] - Table1[materials] - Table1[cost]

we have a team of 2 installers. ( so they both go to the same project)

they need 350€ materials in total to do the job

 

so to do the job, i need 350 materials +( installer 1) 250 + (installer 2 ) 300= 900€

 

now when i put in power bi

project name - revenue - total cost

 

then i make a list with all installers

when i select an installer ( for example installer 1 )  i get all project he was working on.

but in my example it shows 

Project X - revenue 1000 - cost 350(materials) + 250 ( installer 1)

 

because i selected the installer 1 , the cost of installer 2 isn't on the project anymore.

 

regards,

yves
