Weekly billing amounts
Hello, I'm trying to calculate the weekly billing amounts for individuals based on their job title. There are two spreadsheets that cover this. First spreadsheet Includes Job Code and Rate ...
Try with this measure:
Amt billed = Sumx(NATURALINNERJOIN(Table1,Table2), 'Billing Rate'[Billing Rate (USD)]*'Hours Worked'[Hours worked])
Hi,
Once you connect the two tables in your data model using the "Job Code" you can just write the following:
Amount Billed = Sum(First_Spreedsheet[Billing Rate (USD)]*Sum(Second_Spreedsheet[Hours worked])
So that's the equation that I started with, but it gives me a response way more than what it should be. Here's what it should be and what PowerBI calcultes.
| Date | Job Code | Name | Hours worked | Billing Rate (USD) | What it should be | What Power BI calcs |
| 9/10/2022 | Electrical | Edward | 15 | 125 | 1,875 | 11,475 |
| 9/17/2022 | Mechanical | Mike | 10 | 150 | 1,500 | 7,650 |
| 9/24/2022 | Project Manager | Paul | 20 | 140 | 2,800 | 15,300 |
| 10/1/2022 | Systems | Stephanie | 5 | 160 | 800 | 3,825 |
| 10/8/2022 | Director | Donna | 10 | 190 | 1,900 | 7,650 |
| 10/15/2022 | Electrical | Edward | 5 | 125 | 625 | 3,825 |
| 10/22/2022 | Mechanical | Mike | 20 | 150 | 3,000 | 15,300 |
| 10/29/2022 | Project Manager | Paul | 20 | 140 | 2,800 | 15,300 |
| 11/12/2022 | Director | Donna | 5 | 190 | 950 | 3,825 |
Try with this measure:
Amt billed = Sumx(NATURALINNERJOIN(Table1,Table2), 'Billing Rate'[Billing Rate (USD)]*'Hours Worked'[Hours worked])
That did it, thank you!
