Full time employees average and sum of average from start and end date

Hi all

  • I need to find the aggregated number of full time employees (FTE) at a given month and aggregated per year.
    • For instance if there are 35 with decimal 1 and 3 with decimal 0,5 = 36,5 FTE in jan
    • 35 with decimal 1 and 5 with decimal 0,4 = 37,4 FTE in feb
    • 30 with decimal 1 and 12 with decimal 0,5 =  36 FTE in march
    • the ytd would be 36,3. FTE
  • So a sum by month and the average of that sum by year.

Seems so simple but alas. I have given it my best but have come up short. Hope someone out there can help me find the solution.

 

Obviously there are more departments and I do have subcategories related the position of each employee. I have lefter those out for now as the key is to get the total amount per month and per year.

 

I do have a dim_calendar but don't see how I can connect it to the list below - do I connect to start or end date.

One of the solution I have tried is the one below. It appeared to work but I know for sure it doesn't handle the total by year correctly as it seems it sums all the personal who has been active during the year. For instance - monthly count could be 37, 38, 41 and yearly sum would be 42 because of the number of employees that started and terminated their contract during the year.

 

FTE= var maxdate=
MAX(D_Calendar[Date])
return
CALCULATE(SUM(F_Personel_list[decimal hired]);
FILTER(F_Personel_list;F_Personel_list[START]<=maxdate
&& F_Personel_list[End date] >=maxdate
&& F_Personel_list[decimal hired]>0
)
)
I have also tried som groupby but havent had any luck. 
 
Help would save my bacon. Thx in advance

Hi @REGHnoob ,

 

If I understand you correctly, you should be able to get the yearly sum by creating a measure as below:

FTE_year =

VAR maxdate =

    MAX ( 'D_Calendar'[Date] )

VAR mindate =

    MIN ( D_Calendar[Date] )

RETURN

    CALCULATE (

        SUM ( F_Personel_list[Decimal hired] ),

        FILTER (

            F_Personel_list,

            F_Personel_list[START] <= mindate

                && F_Personel_list[END] >= maxdate

                && F_Personel_list[Decimal hired] > 0

        )

    )

The result would be shown as below:

Pbix as attached, hopefully works for you.

Hi  v-jayw-msft 

 

Darn it. have to change my original answer to from yes to no. It actually haven't.

 

In a matrix the total doesn't sum correctly.
