help with burndown chart
- 9 years ago
v-qiuyu-msft, I dont think that line looks quite right. Using the measure I outlined above, the result looks more like a burndown series. I have overlaid the two options for aykim101 to see:
The line needs to continually drop from 133 by the increments of the count column to end at 58 on 31 October. Make sure that Date column is formatted as a date.
Cheers,

Hi, as MFelix and I alluded to, there needs to be a context for the calculation to take place. The calculations I outlined were in lieu of having a definned 133 so start from. You will need a table with the starting point for each of the burndown eg:
Project | Start point
Project 1 | 133
Project 2 | 150
...
Project n | value
Once you have that then and a relationship between the Project column and the Project column in your data table, you will be able to have the startpoint in your caluclation based on selection eg:
SOLVE WITH MEASURE:
Measure1:
Project Start point measure = FIRSTNONBLANK('Project Table'[Start Point],1)
Measure 2:
[Project Start point measure]-CALCULATE( SUM('Table1'[Count]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table1'[Date]),ISONORAFTER('Table1'[Date], MAX('Table1'[Date]),DESC)))
Perhaps theres more to the origional post? Is the count column of the origional steps meant to sum to 133? If so then you could run a sum of the count column and use that as the starting point. =CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[COUNT]),ALL(Table1[DATE])) and use in lieu of the 133 in the calculation.
Cheers,
Sam

Is the burndown a column on your data or do you want to calculate it in order to use it?
If it is a column just add it to your visual and should give you what you want.
MFelix
the column values need to be calculated
each line item has a date that would represent "1" so if there are 2 line items happening on the same day, the burn down chart would reduce by 2 after that day
thanks
