I have 3 tables related to projects.
The first table has the project details (Proj name, proj descrption, location, Total Cost $)
The second table, has details of the various project phases (Proj Name, Phase, Start Date, End Date)
The third table has details of project phases e.g. planning, design, procurement & construction, plus sets the standard expected cost as a percentage of the total buget. E.g planning 8%, design 5% ( Phase, Budget split)
There are numerous projects in the total program of works.
Most projects span 2 or more years, with different phases lasting between 1 and 18 months in duration.
I will display the program of works as a gant chart, but I wish to be able to calculate the total expected program expenditure for any given day, week, month or QTR.
I thought I would be able to calculate the average daily expenditure for each phase of each project (by Total Cost * Budget spit then divide by total duration of phase (days)) and then Sum the values for those projects/phase whose start and end dates either fall within or overlap the period.
I would appreciate any adsistance to develop a measure to achieve this.
Thanks Greg for the guidance. This is my first post.
The following image is of a Gantt Chart related to projects. I wish to be able to calculate the SUM of Daily costs, related to each Project/Phase that falls within the target period (QTR, Month, Day etc) and display results in a table on Matrix below the Gantt.
The following images show my Tables and the relationships.Relationships
Budget Split Table
Phase details
Project details
Calculations within the Phase details Table
1. Duration = [End date]-[Start Date]
2. Total Budget = Related('Project Details'[Cost ($2017M)])
3. Budget Split = Related('Budget splits'[% of Budget])
4. Daily Cost = ([Total Budget]*[Budget Split])/[Duration]
Assistance to in developing an appropriate measure would be appreciated.
