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.
profit = Table1[revenue] - Table1[materials] - Table1[cost]
Best Regards,
Xue Ding

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
