Stock usage over time

Hi everyone,

I am trying to calculate stock usage per day to make ordering easier.

I have several tables:

1. Ingredients

2. Menu Items

3. Date Table

4. Recipes Table

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Menu Item Sales Table

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My goal is this manual Excel example below:

 

 08 08 201909 08 201910 08 201911 08 201912 08 201913 08 201914 08 201915 08 201916 08 201917 08 201918 08 2019
Soup Roasted Pumpkin           
Soup Roasted Tomato           
Ciabatta Rolls W80           
ZOOP Brown Large Bag S0.20           
ZOOP Brown Roll Bag S0.02           
Serviette 2 Ply           

 

Relationships are:

 

Ingredients (1-Many) Recipes

Menu Items (1-Many) Recipes

Menu Items (1-Many) Menu Items Sales

Date (1-Many) Menu Items Sales

 

Any advice?

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Maybe you can try this:

    1. Do not create relationships using 'Menu Table', and create 'Many-to-Many' relationship between 'Recipes Table' and 'Menu Item Sales Table' instead.

    2. Create a measure.

    Ingredient Sales =
SUMX (
    ItemSales,
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( ItemSales[Qty Sold] ),
        ALLEXCEPT (
            'Granular Recipes',
            'Granular Recipes'[Item Name],
            'Granular Recipes'[Ingredient]
        )
    )
        * CALCULATE (
            MAX ( 'Granular Recipes'[Quantity] ),
            ALLEXCEPT ( ItemSales, ItemSales[Date], ItemSales[Item Name] )
        )
)

    Best Regards,

    Icey

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Can you give me some samples of each tables? So that I can create a complete data model.

     

    Best Regards,

      Icey ,

       

      Thank you SO much - that worked perfectly.

       

      If I should post this as a new query, let me know, but I'm trying to work out the average usage of specific ingredients (broken down using a slicer) per weekday. When I try an AVERAGEX function it returns the average for the sum of all the Sundays, for example, meaning it shows the usage for the Sundays for the whole month instead of an average Sunday.

       

      Any clues?

       

      Regards,

       

      Tom
