I have a table with employee data with the following information-
Employee number, name, fte, dob, age, date
There is a row for every month they are employed with us.
I need to show a bar chart with a count by of staff sliced by age.
The outcome will mean I am able to see the count drop when people reach a set age
Example
If 25 staff hit 65 in Sept 2023 then the total number for sept will be 65 less.
I also have a date table.
Thank you

Hi @SamBowdell ,
I suggest you to create a data model as below.
Fact table:
Measure:
Count by Age =
VAR _SELECTAGE =
SELECTEDVALUE ( DimAge[Age] )
VAR _STEP1 =
ADDCOLUMNS (
ALL ( 'Table' ),
"Current Age", QUOTIENT ( DATEDIFF ( 'Table'[Dob], MAX ( DimDate[Date] ), MONTH ), 12 )
)
RETURN
COUNTAX ( FILTER ( _STEP1, [Current Age] < _SELECTAGE ), [Name] )
Result is as below.

Hi, @SamBowdell
1. Create a calculated column using.
Retired = IF('EmployeeTable'[Age] >= 65, "Yes", "No")
2. Create measure for active employee count.
ActiveCount = CALCULATE(
COUNT('EmployeeTable'[Employee number]),
FILTER('EmployeeTable', 'EmployeeTable'[Retired] = "No")
)
Hope this helps.
