Hello all,
I’ve been struggling all day on this and can’t find a solution.
I’m trying to work out how many workers my factory needs in the future. I have a total each week that we need, [Weeks backlog efficiency Zoned] and a running total of the number of workers needed [Cumulative], but I want to minus off each value the number of workers we have [Past Staff] . because we are behind I need to have a cumulative total and move what’s left to be made over into spare capacity next week ect hence the running total.
Cumulative =
CALCULATE([Weeks backlog efficiency Zoned],
FILTER(ALL('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5]),VALUE('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5]) <= VALUE(MAX('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5]))))
When I minus off the number of workers [paststaff] it only takes it off the first week not every week so I end up with a growing number

I have made a cumulative Colum of the Work which needs doing:
Cummulative work =
(CALCULATE([Weeks backlog efficiency Zoned] ,
FILTER(ALL('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5]),VALUE('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5]) <= VALUE(MAX('Future Orders'[Yearweek Backlog 2-5])))))
and the difference between the Labour we have and the Labour we need:
+/- staff = [Weeks backlog efficiency Zoned]-SUM('D Labour (2)'[Past Staff])
this sits nicely in each “Yearweek Backlog 2-5”. now all I need is a cumulative total of the +/-staff but it doesn’t work 😞

How are you minusing off past staff? Can you post that formula?
Sample data would help tremendously but I am guessing that it has something to do with your past staff only being in "scope" for that first set.

Hi thanks for the reply. I think your right about the scope, however even if I type in minus 7 it only takes it off the first week so I need to write something that repeats the process. the past staff formula is below, it simply works out the full time days worked including overtime over the last 5 weeks. Labour(2) is not linked to the date that the rest of the sheet uses.
