    Hi pablopablo ,

     

    Try this.

    Measure = 
VAR x = 
CALCULATE(
    COUNT(Sheet10[Job No]),
    FILTER(
       Sheet10,
        [Week Opened] <= MAX('Calendar'[Week]) && [Week Closed] > MAX('Calendar'[Week])
    )
)
RETURN
x

pablopablo , Create a Week Table, You can do using generate series and analyze week data using that.

 

Try the formula like

Current Jobs = CALCULATE(COUNTx(FILTER(Table,Table[Week Opened]<=max('Week'[Week]) && (ISBLANK(Table[Week Opened]) || Table[Week Opened]>max('Week'[Week]))),(Table[Job No])))

 

Do no join week with any of the columns

 

Very similar to the approch in https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/HR-Analytics-Active-Employee-Hire-and-Termination-trend/ba-p/882970

Hi. thanks for your reply.

 

We already have a calendar table setup which has 'week' column in it

 

My roles table (where this data is already coming from, is already linked to this calendar table via date opened in the roles table and date in the calendar table. there is another join which joins on the date closed in the roles table and date field in the calendar table.

 

Would your example still work?

      Hi,

       

      I used your article and have the following code:

       

      Weekly Cummulative = CALCULATE(COUNTx(FILTER('Live_Roles_Feed',Live_Roles_Feed[Date opened]<=max('Calendar_New'[Date]) && (ISBLANK('Live_Roles_Feed'[Date job closed]) || 'Live_Roles_Feed'[Date job closed]>max('Calendar_New'[Date]))),('Live_Roles_Feed'[Job no.] )),CROSSFILTER(Live_Roles_Feed[Date opened],'Calendar_New'[Date],None))

       

       

      However, it displays like this. I have even created a calendar table using your guide and linked accordingly
