Visualize remaining capacity available

Hi community,

 

I need help creating a dashboard that visualizes the remaining time a person has left after having worked on a project per week. I have the following data structures:
- Hours used: ProjectID | Hours Used | Timestamp
- Project: ProjectID | Available hours
- Person: Name | Capacity
- Capacity (Adds the person table details weekly): Name | Capacity | Week number

I already have the Project[remaining hours] = Project[Available hours] - Hours[Hours Used]. However, I don't know how to connect this to the capacity/person so that I can visualize the remaining hours a person has left per week in a bar chart.

 

I am also not able to calculate the remaining Capacity[weeks until finish all the outstanding work] = Capacity[Capacity] / Project[Remaining hours] for a data card visual.

For both visualizations I would like to be able to filter by week number to gain insights on the [Remaining hours] & [weeks until finish all the outstanding work].

 

I look forward to hearing whether you guys can guide me on the steps to make the visualizations.

Thank you, for your response. I have figured out the simple issues.

I just needed to create a bridge date table, and make sure all columns are of the date type. 

Next time, I will make sure to put my question in the recommended format of either tables including data structure or a power bi with screenshots of the desired results.
