How do i solve for Employee Count is linked to Department, Section and Sub Section

Javierphang_0-1644810049261.png

Hi Guys, i need help as you can see the Total Actual for every row is the same 3606. Is there any way to solve it where the figures is according to the department, section and subsection just like the Total Plan column.

 

For my Total Plan column is it manually inputted based on the excel file. 

File link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pRMVwWwT5oooihd0HxGI-7Ed9sJlN224/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=10579...

 

For the Total Actual column is taken from another excel file.  What i did for Total Actual is input DAX formula:

MJK Employee Count = (COUNTROWS('MJK Total Employees'))
 
However, the value did not tally with the department and subsection and section. Any idea how to solve this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

The mostly is the relationship between these table. you should make sure that these tables have active relationship between them, then you can just use the measure which looks like you provided.

Or please modify the measure like the code below:

MJK Employee Count =
COUNTROWS(
    FILTER(
        ALL( 'MJK Total Employees' ),
        'MJK Total Employees'[Department]
            = SELECTEDVALUE( 'this table Employees'[Department] )
            && 'MJK Total Employees'[Section]
                = SELECTEDVALUE( 'this table Employees'[Section] )
            && 'MJK Total Employees'[Sub Section]
                = SELECTEDVALUE( 'this table Employees'[Sub Section] )
    )
)

@Anonymous , can you share a .pbix file?

It seems that you have 2 tables showing data from 2 files. Are these tables connected? It looks like not...

They have similar columns which can be linked to each other. I have uploaded a sample of the excel files and PBI Report. Please take a look. Thanks!

Hey, 
as mentioned "

For the Total Actual column is taken from another excel file.  What i did for Total Actual is input DAX formula:

MJK Employee Count = (COUNTROWS('MJK Total Employees'))"

Please share the model for this that you have in place. 
If MJK Total EMployees is not filtered by department, section, subsection then this would also not reflect in the table.

@Anonymous , Not very clear.

You can create a new column

Total Actual = 3606

Based on the above image, under the sub section 2F cutting, the total plan is 116, whereas the total actual is 3606. There should be 100+ of workers under this 2F and 20 workers under 2F distribution. 

 

If you see the table clearly, the value of 3606 appears the same for every subsection. Therefore, i want to know is there a way to solve it.
