Creating a custom calculation between 2 tables
Hi,
I am trying to create a custom calculation using 2 separate data tables.
The calculation is vacancy rate which is a basic calculation total headcount and number of live vacancies.
I have a data table with a list of employees (So would be count) and a data table with a list of vacancies (Again would be count). the calculation would be
count of vacancies/count of headcount=vacancy rate

RE: Creating a custom calculation between 2 tables
Hi David,
Thank you for the forum question.
I do not know the name of your tables or your headers, but you will need the Divide function and two Counta functions.
vacancy rate=Divide(Counta(NameofTable[Nameofcolumnheader]
),Counta(NameofTable[Nameofcolumnheader] of headcount),0)
Kind regards

Power BI tip:Utilize Relationships EffectivelyEstablish clear and meaningful relationships between tables in your data model. Proper relationships enable Power BI to navigate and aggregate data accurately. Pay attention to cardinality and cross-filter direction when setting up relationships to ensure the results align with your analytical requirements. |
