Worklog - Total is Wrong

Hi, 

I am working on the Team Worklog and for some reason the Capacity total is coming wrong.

 

It's a simple worklog. The total for Capacity should be '469' but it's showing '784'.

The Measure I am using to calculate Capacity is

 

Capacity = DISTINCTCOUNT(Worklogs[Full name]) * DISTINCTCOUNT(Worklogs[Work date]) * 7

 

Utilization = SUM(Worklogs[Hours])

 

% Utilization = Worklogs[Utilization] / Worklogs[Capacity]

 

I guess is there is a better way to calculate the Capacity team.

 

My log looks something like this.

Hi @joydeep7,

 

AFAIK, measure formulas has different calculation logic on total level. You need to add some conditions and specific formula to handling total level calculation.

 

Sample formula:

Capacity =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( Worklogs[Full name] ),
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( Worklogs[Full name] ) * DISTINCTCOUNT ( Worklogs[Work date] )
        * 7,
    SUMX (
        SUMMARIZE (
            Worklogs,
            [Full name],
            [Work date],
            "Capa", DISTINCTCOUNT ( Worklogs[Full name] ) * DISTINCTCOUNT ( Worklogs[Work date] )
                * 7
        ),
        [Capa]
    )
)
