Working with overtime calculation
Hi,
Tried searching the various other threads on this topic but they didn't really work for my case.
Users can have multiple entries per day depending on activity. I want to sum the total hours per day for each user, see if each user has gone over 8 hours and mark those overages as overtime.
Example of my raw data:
user day hours
| apple | 01.04.2018 | 4 |
| apple | 01.04.2018 | 3 |
| apple | 01.04.2018 | 4 |
| banana | 03.04.2018 | 10 |
| banana | 05.04.2018 | 3 |
However, the problem is either the row value is wrong or the grand total is wrong. Here's what I have so far:
Overtime with Summarize =
SUMX(
SUMMARIZE(
Table1; Table1[hours]);
IF ( Table1[hours] > 8; Table1[hours] - 8; 0))Overtime simple =
var overtime =
SUM(Table1[hours]) - 8
return
IF(overtime < 0; 0; overtime)
Any help appreciated!
OK, I think I got it:
Measure 3 = VAR overtime = SUM('#Overtime'[hours]) - 8 VAR tmpTable = SUMMARIZE('#Overtime',[user],[day],"Hours",SUM('#Overtime'[hours])) VAR tmpTable1 = ADDCOLUMNS(tmpTable,"Overtime",IF([Hours]-8<0,0,[Hours]-8)) VAR overtimeTotal = SUMX(tmpTable1,[Overtime]) RETURN IF(HASONEFILTER('#Overtime'[user]),IF(overtime<0,0,overtime),overtimeTotal)

This will not answer your question, but this if statement
"IF ( Table1[hours] > 8; Table1[hours] - 8; 0)" could be replaced by
MAX (Table1[hours] - 8; 0)
Try using GROUPBY instead of SUMMARIZE. What is your expected output?
