Calculate monthly savings....DAX Help needed... Urgent!!!

Hi There,

 

I am struck with an issue. Could someone please help me resolve the issue?

I have a data table as follows which has monthly headcount & AVG C&B (monthly CTC) data:

MonthHeadcountAvg C&B
31-01-202120833.33
28-02-202115833.33
31-03-202115833.33
30-04-202115833.33
31-05-202112833.33
30-06-202115833.33
31-07-202115833.33
31-08-202115833.33
30-09-202110833.33
31-10-202115833.33
30-11-202115833.33
31-12-202110

833.33

 

The out needed is as follows:

 JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOctNovDec 
HC201515151215151510151510 
Avg C&B ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 ₹           833.33 
CTC ₹           16,667 ₹           12,500 ₹           12,500 ₹           12,500 ₹           10,000 ₹           12,500 ₹           12,500 ₹           12,500 ₹              8,333 ₹           12,500 ₹           12,500 ₹              8,333 ₹ 1,43,333
Savings ₹                     -   ₹              4,167 ₹              4,167 ₹              4,167 ₹              6,667 ₹              4,167 ₹              4,167 ₹              4,167 ₹              8,333 ₹              4,167 ₹              4,167 ₹              8,333 ₹     56,667

 

The calculations are as follows:

CTC for the month = HC * C&B

Savings for Jan = 0 since its the start of the month

Savings for Feb  = Jan CTC - Feb CTC

Savings for Mar = Jan CTC - Mar CTC

and so on...

 

When trying to replicate the same in Power BI, I was able to get the right values for Jan, and for the rest of the months, I was not able to bring the desired result.

 

Could you please help me resolve the issue? 

@rohit_singh, It would be of great help if you could assist me with this issue if possible.

 

Thanks in advance

@phaneendra ,

If they are columns

 

new measure 

CTC = sumx(Table, [Headcount] * [Avg C&B] )

 

if measures then new measure

CTC = CTC = sumx(values(Table[Month]) , [Headcount] * [Avg C&B] ) 

 

Assuming you have month start date or end date 

 

You need Jan CTC =

calculate([CTC], Eomonth([Month Date] ,0)  = Eomonth([Month Date] , ( -1* month([Month Date]) )+1)  )

 

It will be better if month date comes from a date table

 

If this does not help
Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.

Thankyou @amitchandak 

 

Your solution worked big time.

Yes, we have a calendar table, for which I have made some modifications basis the original data, assigned rank and picked up the corresponding month value.

 

Thank you so much for taking time to help me out!

Means a lot!!

 

Highly appreciated 🙂
