Sum value less actual value in POwer BI

HI There

 

I have a sum value eg Staff member has 10 shift totalling 68 hours and set value of 50 hours minimum 

 

How do i create a measure to get the diffeence.  Rostered hours is a sum of x staff member, Actual contract value is set value.

Actual contract hours is set value,

Total shift hours is sum of all hours per staff member

 

Need Shift hours - Actual contract hours =

Hi @Babycakes ,

 

Create a measure that will aggregate/sum the two columns and then get the difference

DIFFERENCE measure = 
SUM('Table'[Column1]) -  SUM('Table'[Column2])

or you can create a calculated column to get the difference

 

DIFFERENCE Column = 
'Table'[Column1] -  'Table'[Column2]

and then create another measure  the sum the difference

SUM OF DIFFERENCE = 
SUM ( 'Table'[DIFFERENCE Column] )

However there are filters by staff Name (not shown in screen shot for privacy)

 

C = Calculate(Sum('PW Staff Templated Hours Report'[Total rostered hours])-CALCULATE(sum('PW Staff Templated Hours Report'[Actual contract hours])))  
 
However I dont want sum of "sum('PW Staff Templated Hours Report'[Actual contract hours])))  "  Need just actual value
 

Hi,

Write these measures

RH = Sum('PW Staff Templated Hours Report'[Total rostered hours])

AH = sum('PW Staff Templated Hours Report'[Actual contract hours])

Diff = [AH]-[RH]

Hope this helps.

Need ah = AH = [Actual contract hours)

 

actual contract value is not to be summed just exact value

Hence 68-50 =18
