Finish date variance

Hi

 

I'm very, very new to Power BI......

 

I've prepared a report in table format linked to data from MS Project Online.

 

 I need to include a column that sets out how many days overdue a task is compared to its planned finish date is. I can see how to show the variance between a finish date and a baseline finish date, however that isn't what I'd need.

 

Thanks

 

 

  • Hi,

     

    Try this calculated column formula

     

    =[Planned Finsh Date]-TODAY()

     

    Hope this helps.

  • Hi KeriHHBB

    Please try this formula

    Column = DATEDIFF([planned finish date],TODAY(),DAY)

    This formula would calculate [the planned finish date]- today's date, thus you know how many days the task delays.

     

    Best Regards

    Maggie

    Hi KeriHHBB

    Assume your table is like

    Create a calculated columns in "Modeling"->New columns

    Column = DATEDIFF([planned finish date],[actual finish date],DAY)

     

    Best Regards

      Hi

      Thanks for your responses.

      In fact I want to compare the planned finish date against today's date so that I can see which tasks are late, and by how many days.

  • Hi,

     

    Try this calculated column formula

     

    =MAX([Planned FInish Date],[Actual FInish Date])-MIN([Planned FInish Date],[Actual FInish Date])

     

    Hope this helps.
