Hi there,
I've been struggling with this for a while so hopefully someone can help me. I'm working on a project staffing dashboard who's source is a Sharepoint site. We staff in FTE values (1.0, 0.5, etc.) rather than hours. Our team works on multiple projects at a time, sometimes for years, other times for just a few weeks or months. We'd like to get visibility into which employees are overallocated for any particular month.
I can't seem to figure out a way to "sum" or "count" the FTE values per user, per project over time. I don't want a total of 30 for someone who is allocated at 1.0 for the month of November (30 days) and 31 for the month of December (31 days). I just want it to be 1.0. See below for what I DON't want:
Here is a table of my mock data:
| Employee Name | Project | FTE | Start Date | End Date |
| John | Project A | 1.0 | 1-Nov-23 | 31-Jan-24 |
| John | Project B | 0.5 | 1-Mar-24 | 31-Dec-24 |
| Jane | Project A | 0.5 | 1-Nov-23 | 31-Mar-24 |
| Jane | Project B | 0.5 | 15-Feb-24 | 31-Jul-24 |
| Jane | Project C | 0.8 | 1-Jun-24 | 31-Dec-24 |
| Bob | Project A | 1.0 | 1-Nov-23 | 13-Dec-24 |
| Bob | Project D | 0.2 | 1-Jun-24 | 15-Aug-24 |
I have a separate Date table in Powerbi and have transformed the main table to show a row for every date between the Start and End dates for each of the data rows above.
Thanks in advance for the help!
