Monthly workload from project plan in Power BI dashboard

Hi I have a table of planned work hours with start and end date. I want to distribute work hours based on the dates and have a dashboard showing each employee's monthly planned workload. Here is a rough sketch of the input table, output table and logic table. Can you please help me create the calculations required to do this? I created a measure that does the calc but I could only get the values to populate at the end date. I am new to PBI. I am guessing I need new intermediate column to store values and then calculate from there?

HI @DataOverlord,

it sounds like a common requirement about analyze records from the date ranges that define by multiple date fields.

I'd like to suggest you take a look the following link start, end date part if helps:
Before You Post, Read This: start, end date 

In addition, you can also try to create a expand mapping table to the detail records that include in the date ranges and link to the raw table. Then you can simply use them to create visualizations:
