Help with calculation please

Hello,

I am doing a project on employees, determining overtime meals $ submitted vs overtime meals $ allowed (based on work hours). Then looking to calculate the discrepancy (allowed minus submitted"

 

I have about 10 employees in my data set. 

 

Please help. Thanks

  • Hi thx ,

    I will do one thing, Can please take 
    Distinct employee or just summarize the separate table 
    for unique employee code .
    post that fix over all 8 hrs per day wise count.
     else. you can concatenate the EMP & Date, by the way you can have it unquie count. $25.

    Dax. 
    Test = 
    VAR _V1 = CONCATENATE ( EMP , DATE)
    RETURN 
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( #hrs), _v1=_v1).

    Can you try this way,

    Thanks.

      hi Gokul,

      I want to calculate the sum of $ allowed (per employee). The allowed $ is based on hours worked in that given day.

       

      Jane smith time sheet:

      Date    | Units(hours) | chargecode

      1/1/23 | 5hours         |  40001010

      1/1/23 | 3hours         |  40274990

      1/1/23 | 3hours         |  72849999

       

      My current issue is, since the employee worked over 10 hours on 1/1/23, employee would be allowed $25 for that day. But since there are 3 rows related to 1/1/23, the allowed is showing $75 (multiplying x #rows).

       

      thank you for your help and assistance. 

      i think that's what the user is saying. As I am having similar issue.
