I'm starting with Power Bi and I need some help to create the data model for this practice case.
I receive the data in a table that has the power consumption of different houses by hour. In the first column it has the date and hour and the rest of columns has the power consumption of each house (one column for each house).
My idea is to create a dashboard with a map as a filter to select the house and a date slicer to filter a period of time.
I dont know exactly what is the better way to face that, if create a subtable for each house or what.
I know that I also have to create another table with the information of each house with coordinates and relate it to the information table, but this information table has the name of the houses in the header of each column and the name is followed by the text "Power Cosumption".
I would appreciate your help, I think that this is not a complicate problem and you can give me some clues or examples to face it.
Thanks!

I need to calculate the time elapsed between to dates, in days. The values are the creation date and the payment date for every invoice in my model table. I will use this value to classify my invoices: sort by time passed, classyfy them, make a Pareto Chart... etc. So I need to create a calculated column in the inoice model table (can't imagine an approach using measures).
But I have two handicaps:
Tables ARE NOT DIRECTLY RELATED, so I can't use the RELATED function
The invoice can be paid in several installments
So, for each invoice, I need to calculate de time elapsed, in days, between the generation date (in a table) and the MAX payment date of all it's installments (in another indirectly related table)
This:
DaysElapsedInPayment = DATEDIFF(Invoices[InvoiceDate], Max(RELATED(Installments[InstallmentPaymentDate])), DAY)
would work if the tables were directly related an DateDiff whould accept MAX, but no, it's not the case. For your information, if could be usefull to you, this is my invoice-payment model scheme:
Could you help me, please?
EDIT:
As requested, I explain more deeply my data model...
My model looks complex because an invoice can be paid by several payments (part in cash, part in direct debit, for example), so a invoice can have MULTIPLE payments. At the same time, a payment can involve several invoices. Thats why my invoices-payments is many-to-many. And also, a payment (for example a payment by direct debit) can be divided in installments that are monthly sent to bank.
My model has lots of tables, not in english. For my purpose, I mock the needed ones here:
As you can see in the mocked data:
One invoice is paid in a single payment. It's the common case. We only have a single payment date in 'Payments'. That one is the one I need.
Another invoice is paid in TWO payments (part in cash, part payed by VISA), in different days. I need the date of the LAST of both payments.
Last case, I have two invoices that will be paid as a 'SINGLE' payment. Both should have to return the PaymentDate in Payments. But, at the las moment, we agreed with the client to pay them in installments. So installments are created, each one with a DueDate an the date wuere they were finally payed. So I need to get the LAST date of all installments for this payment.
It's complex, I know, but at the end, is about:
Given a value, find related values in anoter table indirectly related
From all values found, get the greatest
The function must perform theese operations, and put the results in a calculated column.
Have you triend creating a Calendar Table with the AUTOCALENDAR function? That way you could create a relation between both tables to make the calculations. Let me know if you need further assistance in order to add this table to the model
I have the model below and I want to calculate the capacity of each assignee based on the remaining days in a Sprint.
This would be basically Users[USER_DAILY_CAPACITY] * SPRINTS[DAYS_REMAINING_IN_SPRINT] but I can't achieve this in DAX.
Data model
Ultimately I want to display the Original Effort vs Remaining effort vs Remaining capacity per assignee and filter with Sprints_Reports.SPRINT_ID .
I tried merging USER with SPRINTS using some intermediary tables and I can calculate the Remaining capacity per user, but with no direct relationship between SPRINTS and ISSUES doesn't bring the correct data if I filter with the Sprints_Reports.SPRINT_ID .
Any help would be appreciated
So for the purposes of this quandry, I have two tables in Power BI desktop. A 'Finance' and a 'Calendar' table.
The Calendar table has a filter (towards) relationship with 'Finance.' They are joined on Finance[Transaction date] = Calendar[date].
Finance contains transactions from individuals, there might be multiple for each individual.
I want to know how I can display a count of transactions by year for a selected individual (or individuals) from the 'Finance' table on a bar graph axis in a way that the dates start at the point of their first transaction, rather than the first date in the calendar table.
I'm open to changing the model, so any way of achieving this independent of my current setup is welcome. Any help much appreciated.
Im not quite sure this is what you are looking ,
If you want to show numbers on your whatever visualization you can add it from here
it displays numbers accordingly
I want to create a report in Netsuite ERP that shows me the information about Departments Sales and Budget by Month. I think I can achieve this by creating a saved search that chooses this items, however I don't understand under which category I can find this fields. A saved search would be ideal as I am trying to authomatize the reports in a java application, and I discovered that I can call the savedSearch results.
I found the Department under the standard Criteria in the subcategory "Owner..." and I added a Date standard criteria with the values "within this month", however I have not found the group that contains all the Sales/Income/Margin or the budget (though, I found an aggregation sum function that may be used along with a field). I will appreciate any help. Also, will the addition of this fileds be enough to get the Sales X Department X Date information or do I have to use a different join method?
Thanks!
You'd have to combine two saved searches to achieve this.One on budgets for the period you need. The department column is available on the budgets saved search.
The other would be transactions for the period. Generally budgets are against posting transactions so Invoices, Cash Sales, Credit Memos and Cash Refunds would be in your other search. If you group those by Department you could then combine the two searches in code to create your own budget vs actuals report.
