Now, I want to combine the column New Week Status which has values Current Full Week and Previous Full Week.
So I want my final output to look like:

How can this be achieved ?

I have a line chart in which i am showing the cumulative value of the plan and actual and I have a week slicer in which I have the end of every week.
In the line chart, i would like to show the Actual until the filtered week.
I am not sure if that is possible since the slicer of week name is a specific date and not a range, can anyone help me ?
See attached files in the link below the excel file is how i want to be and the PBIX is how it is now.

I have a simple date table (marked as a Date Table)
the Date column is native to it, the rest are calculated columns.
This issue will be about these of them:
Month Name = FORMAT(Dates[Date], "Mmmm")
Month = Month(Dates[Date])
Both set to "Don't summarize".
I dropped them into value field of a visual out of curiousity, and a curious thing happened - despite "don't summarize" they took MIN form of value to display, but Month Name came out incorrect.
Image 1: 3 out of 4 lines in the column First Month Name are wrong, unlike Month which is fine.
Image 2: added Date to the row fields to check - line by line it's fine, but subtotal still wrong:
Image 3: I filtered Month Name in data view for February, to see which lines are for Month value of 1 - there is none.
This is a blank new report, no measures, no filters - that's all it is.
If someone can explain why this happens, thanks in advance
The columns with "Earliest"/"First"/"Min" are summarizing because they are implicit measures in a matrix visual. Since there are multiple months in one quarter it has to aggregate somehow.
The month name is a text field, so it sorts alphabetically by default. If you want it to sort by month number instead, you can use the Sort by Column feature to sort Month Name by Month.
I have a recordset where rows have a date field.Rows are from current year and last year. I want to see the count of rows per year. That's easy. Now I'd like to have a third column with difference (count(currentYear) - count(lastYear)). Is there any way to achieve this?
thanks
It seems like you want to have the difference calculated between two members of the same date field.
If so, you might want to consider the customizeCell() API call to retrieve the count values of each year, use them to calculate the difference, and modify the necessary cells with the result.
Alternatively, you could try modifying your data set so that the lastYear and currentYear are two different fields – this, for example, would allow you to compare them within a calculated value.
I'm trying to filter the same column twice. I basically want to only get the record in which one column is between the values of other 2 columns.
Imagine this:
(id,year_min,year_max,year)
(4470,1999,2001,2011)
(4471,2006,2013,2013)
So filtering like this it doesn't work:
filter1 = filter set by (year_min <= year and year_max >= year)
Is there another way of filtering it instead of breaking that filter into several ones?
Also, all the columns are bytearray.
PS: That is not the whole set but that is basically what I want to achieve.
Thanks.
I guess the year_max and year got swapped in your schema. It should be like this right? id, year_min, year, year_max but your schema says id, year_min, year_max, year . I modified the schema its works fine for me. Can you check it?
I have an issue with an excel spreadsheet I want to see if I can do without VBA just because it seems easier to implement that way. Basically, there are many columns in the sheet I want to sort. However, I merely want to look at three columns: the title column, the data column and the status column.
In a new spreadsheet, there will be four sections. Each section corresponds to 3 months of the year (ie Jan, Feb, Mar. will map to the first column on the new spreadsheet, April, May, June will map to the second column on the new spreadsheet).
Based on the date, and if the status column has the word "Finished" (in the original spreadsheet), I want to map the title to a certain column under the new spreadsheet based on the date criteria as described in the previous paragraph. So for example, if the original spreadsheet has following:
Title Date Status
Doc1 1/12/13 Finished
Doc2 2/10/13 UnFinished
Doc3 4/1/13 Finished
Doc4 3/31/13 Finished
Would map to, on the new spreadsheet:
1st Column | 2nd Column
Doc1 Doc3
Doc4
I have looked a lot into pivot tables but I can't "automate it" as much as I want to. I have gotten it down to the point where I can change the pivot tables into filtering based on date, but I want it even more automated than that. I've also tried excel formulas but that has been to no avail. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it!
With a PivotTable it seems fairly easy to 'automate' as far as Sheet 2 as below:
but from there to the result requested is relatively 'manual' without VBA, so may not suit.
For my convenience I have changed the date formats. The PivotTable is constructed as usual/indicated without showing grand totals for rows or for columns (PivotTable Options, Totals & Filters). The Column Labels are Date with Grouping By Quarters with appropriate Starting at: and Ending at: (Group) and Collapse Entire Field (Expand/Collapse).
The formula in I6 is to convert the document count (always 1) to document name:
=IF(F6=1,$E6,"")
However, to allow room for additional quarters in the PivotTable the formula should be moved to the right. The formula would need to be copied across and down as necessary.
The process becomes more ‘manual’ with copying the results of these formulae, pasting them (with Special / Values) into a new location (in the example 2!A1) and, if required, deleting blanks.
This may be against the rules with regards to maintaining the integrity of the OP's request, but hopefully it doesn't offend :)
Here's another option.
Add another column (shame on me, I know) to the original data, and
called this Quarter. The formula that goes next to the existing data
is the following.
=IF(C2="Finished",IF(MONTH(B2)<=3,"Q1",IF(MONTH(B2)<=6,
"Q2",IF(MONTH(B2)<=9,"Q3","Q4"))),C2)
Basically, if the status is "Finished", then determine in what quarter the date is.
Create the pivot table with that data, and then add "Quarter" and
"Title" to the Row Labels (in that order)
Last thing would be to click the arrow next to "Row Labels" and select "Does not Equal" under "Label Filters". There you'll type "Unfinished" (no quotation marks). This will give you something like the image below.
From here the only manual thing you'll need to do is update the data range for the pivot table if more rows are added to the pivot table data and refresh the pivot table if the original data changes
NOTE: To address your question about sorting; after you do the steps above, you can select the Row Labels again and do an A>Z sort to get each quarter to be sorted in alphabetical order
