Hello
I need help to make a monthly progress representation
I have 4 tables containing the records of 4 forms (Date, Site, Name, etc...)
I have 4 annual objectives for these 4 forms of the type "in 2020, there must be 240 forms n°1 recorded".
the aim is to see on a PBI visualization, the number achieved vs. the objective brought back to the month, which would give for example for form n°1, X / 180 at the end of September.
Having 4 separate data tables, I had started on a 5th table with the objectives per form, per year and per service but I can't make it work. I have the impression that the theoretical objective should be cut out again for each line of the 4 tables. (divide the year by the number of days, and paste this value)
Can someone tell me if this is possible with a dedicated table? If so, how?
Thanks
Table for one of the forms "VS" (First columns)
Table for objectives
Hi @ptortel ,
If your 4 tables are the same I believe that the best option is not to have 4 different tables but to append them together and have a single table with all the values with a column identifing the form.
If you have single table for the objectives that need to be divided by month believe the best option is to make a relationship between the services and form (not by date) and then using a simple measure like SUM(Table[Objective])/12 you would get the monthly total.

Check out my blog: Power BI em Portuguêstaking into account your remark, I built a new table which compiles the common data of the 4 others
Below are the working data now, but I'm not sure of the right strategy for my monthly breakdown Achieved / Goal
Both tables (those below) are filtered by calendar table and another one (for activities perimeter)
Should i divide annual objective per number of days in the year ? and then a measure with totalytd ?
Common table
Objectiv Table
Hi @ptortel ,
Looking at your data I would not relate the objective table with the calendar and then would create the measures similar to this ones:
Daily_Objective =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Objectives'[Annual Objective] ) / 365;
FILTER (
'Objectives';
YEAR ( 'Objectives'[YearConcerned] )
= YEAR ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'calendar'[Date] ) )
)
)
Cumulative Objective =
[Daily_Objective]
* COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
ALL ( 'calendar' );
'calendar'[Date] >= DATE ( YEAR ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'calendar'[Date] ) ); 1; 1 )
&& 'calendar'[Date] <= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'calendar'[Date] )
)
)
Then you can use that to make other calculations
check PBIX file attach (October2020 version of PBI).

Check out my blog: Power BI em Portuguêsthanks for reply @MFelix
Actually, screenshots doesn't show all columns (12-15 kept per form), and some others are different (4 forms , 4 different uses)
so, can't aggregate data tables
I'll try your option for objectives and let you know
