Re: Dynamic calculation of tenure based on selecte...

Hi,

I have a data that looks like this. A person has multiple rows of data. Each event (such as promotion, hire, termination, rehire) equates to one row of data. I need to get each of their tenure and then add group/bin them accordingly.

If the current status is active then Newest Employment Date - Maximum Date based on selected slicer in the report. (if the slicer selected is Mar 2022, the max date is Mar 31 2022). Thus, Newest employment date - mar 31 2022. The max date adjusts based on the selected slicer.

If the current status is terminated then newest employment date - termination date.
If the selected slicer is less than the termination date then use that lesser date (because technically, it makes sense that way)

Then I should group them by 0-6 Months, 1-5 years, 6-10 years and so on and by their teams as well. Result should be a table that looks like this:

	0-6 Months	1-5 Years	6-10 years
IT	10	5	2
HR	2	4	2
Total	12	9	4

Raw Data:

	Newest Employment Date	New Termination Date	Event	Current Status	Team
Anne	20/03/2021		Hire	Active	IT
Anne	20/03/2021	09/02/2017	Terminated	Active	IT
Anne	20/03/2021		Rehire	Active	IT

Ben	19/07/2022	29/12/2022	Hire	Terminated	HR
Ben	19/07/2022	29/12/2022	Terminated	Terminated	HR


Carl	19/07/2022		Hire	Active	IT
Carl	19/07/2022		Promotion	Active	IT
Carl	19/07/2022		Change in Job Title	Active	IT

Hi @Honne2021 ,

For now, the advice I can provide is to create a separate calendar table to provide filtered dates for the slicer.

The raw data provided seems a matrix visual in Power BI, right?

What does your data look like in data view in Power BI Desktop?

Please explain again how the expected results of IT and HR in the [0-6 Months] column came from, and if so, it is best to explain it based on the raw data from data view.

Best Regards,

Stephen Tao
