Simple measure formula to calculate productivity?

[Anonymous]

EERM = 
var startdate = CALCULATE(MIN(ServiceLogs[Date]))
var stopdate = CALCULATE(MAX(ServiceLogs[Date]))
VAR hourlyrate = CALCULATE(SUM(PayRates[HourlyRate]))
VAR possiblehours = CALCULATE(SUM(Dates[PossibleHours]), FILTER(Dates, Dates[Date] >= startdate && Dates[Date] <= stopdate))
var totaltime = CALCULATE(SUM(ServiceLogs[TotalTime]))
var possiblebilling = CALCULATE(SUM(Dates[PossibleBilling]))
var totalcost = MIN(Cost[Cost])
var totalbilling = totaltime * totalcost
DIVIDE(DIVIDE(hourlyrate * possiblehours, totaltime), hourlyrate) + DIVIDE(possiblebilling, totalbilling)

I am trying to create a measure that calculates the EERM per employee based on a date range from a slicer. 

The tables are basically as follows:

Dates

- Date

- IsWorkingDay

- PossibleHours = 8 if working day

- Possible Billing = Say, 100, if working day

Cost

- Cost

ServiceLogs

- TechID

- TotalTime

- Date

Reps

- RepName

- TechID

PayRates

- RepName

- HourlyRate

HourlyRate, TotalTime, and TotalCost seem to work when I return only them. I guess the problem lies with the Dates table, which has no rep to filter by? PossibleHours returns a multiple of 8, but differs for every person when it should be the same across the board? If I select 2 weeks in the data slicer it needs show 80 hours for everyone. Not worried about time off just yet.

The bar chart is EERM by RepName. All tables have a relationship both ways on respective field names.

Hi @Anonymous 

You could create a disconnected date table, add columns from this table to the slicers,

Then create measures using the selected value from the slicer.

You could check the threads below:

Thank you! It's like a Christmas gift 😁

I had already created a date table, but it was not disconnected. I realized that I had the direction set to both and when I changed that to one-way it resolved some of it. That article also pointed me in the right direction to get the start and end date of the slicer using ALLSELECTED.

I believe it was:

Start Date = CALCULATE(MIN(Dates[Date]), ALLSELECTED(Dates[Date]))

End Date = CALCULATE(MAX(Dates[Date]), ALLSELECTED(Dates[Date]))

Anyway, thank you again. Have a great New Year!

@Anonymous if you can share pbix with sample data and expected out, will help to get you the solution.
