Hey there,
Can someone help me calculate the following in Power BI :
Retention - % calculated with = 1 - Number of employees that left the company and that were hired in the previous 12 months / Number of hires in the previous 12 months
Turnover - % calculated with = Number of employees that left in the previous 12 months / (Total Employees in the previous 12 months + Number of employees that left in the previous 12 months)
The column 'date of resignment' tells me if an employee left.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous
Due to I don't know your data model, I build a sample to have a test.
My Sample:
Build a Date table by dax code.
Date =
VAR _T =
ADDCOLUMNS (
CALENDARAUTO (),
"Year", YEAR ( [Date] ),
"Month", MONTH ( [Date] ),
"YearMonth",
YEAR ( [Date] ) * 100
+ MONTH ( [Date] ),
"MonthName", FORMAT ( [Date], "MMMM" )
)
VAR _T2 =
ADDCOLUMNS ( _T, "Rank", RANKX ( _T, [YearMonth],, ASC, DENSE ) )
RETURN
_T2
Measures:
Retention - % calculated with =
VAR _Previous12START =
EOMONTH ( MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ), -13 ) + 1
VAR _Previous12END =
EOMONTH ( MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ), -1 )
VAR _LEFT =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( 'Sample'[Employee] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Sample' ),
'Sample'[Check in Date] >= _Previous12START
&& 'Sample'[Check in Date] <= _Previous12END
&& 'Sample'[Date of Resignment] >= _Previous12START
&& 'Sample'[Date of Resignment] <= _Previous12END
)
) + 0
VAR _Total =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( 'Sample'[Employee] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Sample' ),
'Sample'[Check in Date] <= _Previous12END
&& OR (
'Sample'[Date of Resignment] >= _Previous12START,
'Sample'[Date of Resignment] = BLANK ()
)
)
)
RETURN
1 - DIVIDE ( _LEFT, _Total )
Turnover - % calculated with =
//Number of employees that left in the previous 12 months / (Total Employees in the previous 12 months + Number of employees that left in the previous 12 months)
VAR _Previous12START =
EOMONTH ( MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ), -13 ) + 1
VAR _Previous12END =
EOMONTH ( MAX ( 'Date'[Date] ), -1 )
VAR _LEFT =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( 'Sample'[Employee] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Sample' ),
'Sample'[Date of Resignment] >= _Previous12START
&& 'Sample'[Date of Resignment] <= _Previous12END
)
)
VAR _TOTAL =
CALCULATE (
COUNT ( 'Sample'[Employee] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Sample' ),
'Sample'[Check in Date] <= _Previous12END
&& OR (
'Sample'[Date of Resignment] >= _Previous12START,
'Sample'[Date of Resignment] = BLANK ()
)
)
)
RETURN
DIVIDE ( _LEFT, _TOTAL )

Hi @v-rzhou-msft ,
Thank you for this solution! It works like magic.
I would like to drill down further to see retention % based on job titles and business units. How can i achieve this? Do I need to add an additional 'filter' function in the above dax?
If so what can that look like?
Thanks a lot for your support!
@Anonymous , need to know data model and table columns.
But you can create hire and terminated employee like give in blog. and then can try this for the last 12 months
example
Rolling 12 = CALCULATE([hire],DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date ],MAX('Date'[Date ]),-12,MONTH))
Rolling 12 = CALCULATE([terminated],DATESINPERIOD('Date'[Date ],MAX('Date'[Date ]),-12,MONTH))
