I need to create a visualisation in PowerBI that displays a pivot table of attribute by tenant, with a weighted averages (by square foot) column, like this:
Jeff
Tom
Weighted Average (by Sq Ft)

Term Length (months)

I have unpivoted the original data, like this:

I can almost create what I need from the unpivoted data using a matrix (as below), but I can't calculate the weighted averages column from that matrix.

I can also create a table with my attributes as headers (instead of in a column). This displays the right values and lets me calculate weighted averages (as below).

However, it's important that these values are displayed vertically instead of horizontally. This is pretty straightforward in Excel, but I can't figure out how to do it in PowerBI. I hope this is clear. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

I have two tables one with data about franchise locations (Franchise Profile Info) and one with Award data. Each franchise location is given a certain number of awards they are allowed to give out per year. Each franchise location rolls up to a larger group depending on where in the country they are located. These tables are in a 1 to 1 relationship using Franchise ID. I am trying to create a matrix with the number of awards, total utilized, and percentage utilized rolled up to group with the ability to expand the groups and see individual locations. For some reason when I add the value fields a blank row is created. There are not any blank rows in either of the original tables so I'm not sure where this is coming from.

This tables are in a relationship with a 1 to 1 match on ID
What I want the matrix to look like

I can't for the life of me figure out where this row is coming from. I can add in the Group and Franchise name as rows but as soon as I add any of the value columns this blank row shows up.
You have a value on the many side that does not exist on the one side. You can read a full explanation here. https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/blank-row-in-dax/

I managed to solve it by creating a measure which is a ratio.
In my case, table 1 had values in say rupees.
table 2 had values in say, litres
So, I created a measure which is a division of sum total rupees and sum total of litres and when I added the measure to values in pivot matrix, it automatically divided the two tables.
I have a dataset OvertimeHours with EMPLID, checkdate and NumberOfHours (and other fields). I need a running total NumberOfHours for each employee by checkdate. I tried using the Quick Measure option but that only allows for a single column and I have two. I do not want the measure to recalculate when filters are applied. Ultimately what I am trying to do is identify the records for the first 6 hours of overtime worked on each check so that they can get a category of OCB and all overtime over the first 6 hours is OTP and it does not have to be exact (as demonstrated in the output below). I have only been working with Power BI for about a month and this is a pretty complex (for me) formula to figure out...
EMPLID CheckDate WkDate NumberOfHours RunningTotal Category
124 1/1/19 12/20/18 5 5 OCB
124 1/1/19 12/21/18 9 14 OTP
125 1/1/19 12/20/18 3 3 OCB
125 1/1/19 12/20/18 2 5 OCB
125 1/1/19 12/22/18 2 7 OTP
124 1/15/19 1/8/19 3 3 OCB
*Edited to add the WkDate.
Edit:
I have tweaked my query so that I have the running total and a sequential counter now:
Using the first 12 records, I am looking to get the following results:
I can either do it in a query if that is the easiest way or if there is a way to use DAX in PowerBI with this dataset now that I have the sequential piece, I can do that too.
I got it in the query:
select r.CheckDate,
r.EMPLID,
case
when PayrollRunningOTHours <= 6
then PayrollRunningOTHours
else 6
end as OCBHours,
case
when PayRollRunningOTHours > 6
then PayRollRunningOTHours - 6
end as OTPHours
from #rollingtotal r
inner
join lastone l
on r.CheckDate = l.CheckDate
and r.EMPLID = l.EMPLID
and r.OTCounter = l.lastRec
order by r.emplid,
r.CheckDate,
r.OTCounter
I have a fact table named meetings containing the following:
- staff
- minutes
- type
I then created a summarized table with the following:
TableA =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
'meetings'[staff]
, 'meetings'[type]
, "SumMinutesByStaffAndType", SUM( 'meetings'[minutes] )
)
This makes a pivot table with staff as rows and columns as types.
For this pivottable I need to calculate each cell as a percent of the column total. For each staff I need the average of their percents. There are only 5 meeting types so I need the sum of these percents divided by 5.
I don't know how to divide one number grouped by two columns by another number grouped by one column. I'm coming from the SQL world so my DAX is terrible and I'm desperate for advice.
I tried creating another summarized table to get the sum of minutes for each type.
TableB =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
'meetings'[type]
, "SumMinutesByType", SUM( 'meetings'[minutes] )
)
From there I want 'TableA'[SumMinutesByStaffAndType] / 'TableB'[SumMinutesByType].
TableC =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
'TableA'[staff],
'TableB'[type],
DIVIDE ( 'TableA'[SumMinutesByType], 'TableB'[SumMinutesByType]
)
"A single value for column 'Minutes' in table 'Min by Staff-Contact' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."
I keep arriving at this error which leads me to believe I'm not going about this the "Power BI way".
I have tried making measures and creating matrices on the reports view. I've tried using the group by feature in the Query Editor. I even tried both measures and aggregate tables. I'm likely overcomplicating it and way off the mark so any help is greatly appreciated.
Here's an example of what I'm trying to do.
## Input/First table

Please let me know if I can clarify an aspect.
You can make use of the built in functions like %Row total in Power BI, Please find the snapshot below
If this is not what you are looking for, kindly let me know (I have used your Input table)
I have one dataframe in the following form:
df = pd.read_csv('data/original.csv', sep = ',', names=["Date", "Gran", "Country", "Region", "Commodity", "Type", "Price"], header=0)
I'm trying to do a self join on the index Date, Gran, Country, Region producing rows in the form of
Date, Gran, Country, Region, CommodityX, TypeX, Price X, Commodity Y, Type Y, Prixe Y, Commodity Z, Type Z, Price Z
Every row should have all the different commodities and prices of a specific region.
Is there a simple way of doing this?
Any help is much appreciated!
Note: I simplified the example by ignoring a few attributes
Input Example:
Date Country Region Commodity Price
1 03/01/2014 India Vishakhapatnam Rice 25
2 03/01/2014 India Vishakhapatnam Tomato 30
3 03/01/2014 India Vishakhapatnam Oil 50
4 03/01/2014 India Delhi Wheat 10
5 03/01/2014 India Delhi Jowar 60
6 03/01/2014 India Delhi Bajra 10
Output Example:
Date Country Region Commodit1 Price1 Commodity2 Price2 Commodity3 Price3
1 03/01/2014 India Vishakhapatnam Rice 25 Tomato 30 Oil 50
2 03/01/2014 India Delhi Wheat 10 Jowar 60 Bajra 10
What you want to do is called a reshape (specifically, from long to wide). See this answer for more information.
Unfortunately as far as I can tell pandas doesn't have a simple way to do that. I adapted the answer in the other thread to your problem:
df['idx'] = df.groupby(['Date','Country','Region']).cumcount()
df.pivot(index= ['Date','Country','Region'], columns='idx')[['Commodity','Price']]
Does that solve your problem?
