Hi all,
I am struggling somewhat with a data model which I have tried to simplify for this query.
2 DIM Tables:
Employees - 1 record per employee
EmployeeID - Unique ID
SiteKey - Code of where they work
Employee Name
Weekly Hours - Their contracted hours per week (eg: 40, 20 etc)
Resigned Date - The date they left the company if no longer employed.
Sites - 1 record per Site
SiteKey
Site - Desciption of the location
2 FACT tables:
Absence
EmployeeID
AbsenceDate
AbsenceType (Holiday or Sick)
AbsenceHours
Sickness
EmployeeID
SicknessDate
SicknessHours
So far I have related the above 4 tables and also included a Date table, joining to Absense and Sickness on Date. I can therefore plot a chart showing Sickness and Absence by Date and also filter by Employee or Site.
Bits I am struggling with!
1, I need to report the number of hours assumed worked by Date, based on each employees WeeklyHours. We are happy to divide their weekly hours by 5 to get a Daily Hours measure. However this should only be reported against Monday to Fridays and ignoring Saturdays and Sundays. As WeeklyHours are only stored in my Employee DIM table, I need to find a way to relate this with Date.
2, I have added a slicer on Absence Type, so we can just look at Holidays, however dates with Sickness and no holidays remain, as Absence isn't related with Sickness. How can I get around this?
3, The last issue I have spotted (for now!) is that I also need to stop an Employee's Daily Hours (point 1), from the date which they might have left the company (Resigned Date).
I have uploaded my simplified and non formatted pbix to Dropbox. Any help greatly appreciated!
