DAX

  1. Convert the below expression in DAX or explain how you will achieve the result if you have full year exit and headcount data stacked monthly

Annualized Attrition = (Total YTD Exits/YTD Average Headcount) * (12/Number of months passed)

First you need to calculate Active Headcounts for each month/date. That means if person left/hire during that time, he must be included/excluded from active head counts. There should be "Leaving Date" , "Hiring Date" in your data.

 

Create a YTD measure of based on above.

 

Create a measure that will calculate exit only.

 

The architecture will include 1-active relationship between Date and Employee table. Lets say it is connected with Hiring Date.

 

Then there will be a inactive relationship between Date and Leaving date to calculate exits based on this relationship.

 

In below example there is a Column active and it will hold "1" for all the employees and "Left" column where employees left or Leaving date is not null

 

_Hire = CALCULATE(SUM(Employee[Active]),USERELATIONSHIP(PBI_DimDate[DateSecAlternateKey],Employee[HiringDate]))
_Hire YTD =  CALCULATE([_Hire],DATESYTD(PBI_DimDate[DateSecAlternateKey]))
_Left = CALCULATE(SUM(Employee[Left]),USERELATIONSHIP(PBI_DimDate[DateSecAlternateKey],Employee[LeavingDate]))

 

_ActiveAll = 
Var dt = Max(PBI_DimDate[DateSecAlternateKey])

RETURN

CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(Employee),FILTER(ALLEXCEPT(Employee,Employee[CountryCode]),(Employee[HiringDate]<=dt && (Employee[LeavingDate]>=dt || ISBLANK(Employee[LeavingDate])=TRUE()) )))

 

Then create your above formula using above measures..

 

Annualized Attrition = (Total YTD Exits/YTD Average Headcount) * (12/Number of months passed)
