I'm currently struggling with calculating the running months depending on the year. I have the following table:
Received Month Received Year
Feb 2018
Feb 2018
Mar 2018
... ...
Nov 2018
Nov 2018
Dec 2018
Dec 2018
Jan 2019
Jan 2019
Feb 2019
I was using this formula to count the # of unique months (running months in 1 single cell [C1]);
=SUMPRODUCT(1/(COUNTIF(KAIZEN_Table[Received Month],KAIZEN_Table[Received Month])))
This was working great in 2018, it gave me 11 (Feb - Dec).
I have to add a filter that also checks if the year is 2019. I can't remove 2018 in the table because the operators are still using the 2018 lines. The filter is just here to set a KPI for 2019.
For some reason I can't figure out how to add the year. I tried;
=SUMPRODUCT(1/(COUNTIFS(KAIZEN_Table[Received Month],KAIZEN_Table[Received Month],KAIZEN_Table[Received Year], "2019")))
This is just giving me a 0.
Any suggestions on this? VBA code is also fine.
Edit: After extensive googling I found a working formula, for whoever might be interested in this.
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(tbl[Year]=2019,MATCH(tbl[Month],tbl[Month],0)),ROW(tbl[Month])-ROW($L$5)+1),1))
L5 = First row of tbl[Month]
I have my data in A1:B14, the formula I've used is an array one
=SUM(1/(COUNTIFS($A$1:$A$14,$A$1:$A$14,$B$1:$B$14,$B$1:$B$14)))
however,
=SUMPRODUCT(1/(COUNTIFS($A$1:$A$14,$A$1:$A$14,$B$1:$B$14,$B$1:$B$14)))
would suffice
To do a particular year, you could do something like this
=SUM(($B$1:$B$14=2019)*(1/COUNTIFS($A$1:$A$14,$A$1:$A$14,$B$1:$B$14,B1:B14)))
Another approach is to use a Pivot Table.
On the Create Pivot Table dialog, select to Add this data to the Data Model
If you do this, you will note that one of the options in the Value Field Settings will be Distinct Count
Drag Received Year to the Rows Column; Received Month to the Values column, and select Distinct Count for the Value Field Setting
Is there a way to use the SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR function in Power BI when your fiscal calendar does not go month to month? Our monthly calendar ends on the last Saturday of the month. This is what I have
Current = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('FactWholesale'))
Last = CALCULATE([Current],SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(DimDate[Date]))
the Current months are always correct. an example
the current September 2017 is 594 and current month September 2018 is 578
the problem is sameperiodlastyear for September 2018 is 579 and it should be 594.
I believe what is happening is to figure sameperiodlastyear it is using 8/27/2017 - 9/30/2017 to figure. is there a way to make this work?
FiscalMonthStartDate FiscalMonthEndDate FiscalMonth
8/28/2016 10/1/2016 Sep-17
8/27/2017 9/30/2017 Sep-18
I have an excel document with various dates in Column A ranging from April, 2014 through April 2017.
I need to assign a number based on the month and year - April 2014 is 23 and it drops by 1 every month going forward. So May 2014 is 22, June 2014 is 21 and so forth. Once I get to March 2016, or 0, all dates greater than that are also 0. My issue is that excel is treating April 2014 and April 2015 the same - they are both returning a value of 23.
Here is my code:
=IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=4,YEAR(A2=2014)),"23",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=5,YEAR(A2=2014)),"22",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=6,YEAR(A2=2014)),"21",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=7,YEAR(A2=2014)),"20",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=8,YEAR(A2=2014)),"19",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=9,YEAR(A2=2014)),"18",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=10,YEAR(A2=2014)),"17",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=11,YEAR(A2=2014)),"16",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=12,YEAR(A2=2014)),"15",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=1,YEAR(A2=2015)),"14",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=2,YEAR(A2=2015)),"13",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=3,YEAR(A2=2015)),"12",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=4,YEAR(A2=2015)),"11",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=5,YEAR(A2=2015)),"10",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=6,YEAR(A2=2015)),"9",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=7,YEAR(A2=2015)),"8",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=8,YEAR(A2=2015)),"7",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=9,YEAR(A2=2015)),"6",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=10,YEAR(A2=2015)),"5",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=11,YEAR(A2=2015)),"4",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=12,YEAR(A2=2015)),"3",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=1,YEAR(A2=2016)),"2",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=2,YEAR(A2=2016)),"1",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)=3,YEAR(A2=2016)),"0",IF(AND(MONTH(A2)>3,YEAR(A2=2016)),"0","0")))))))))))))))))))))))))
Any help is greatly appreciated!
I would use yearfrac instead.
=IF(A2>DATE(2016,3,1),0,ROUND(YEARFRAC(DATE(YEAR(A2),MONTH(A2),1),DATE(2016,3,1))*12,0))
Yearfrac between your date (A2) and date(2016,3,1) will give you the portion of a year between the two which you can multiply by 12 and round to get the month number. The if statement takes care of months after March.
Try this:
=IF(A2<Date(2016,3,1),DATEDIF(A2,DATE(2016,3,1),"m"),0)
I have two columns in a excel containing value like : Mon Dec 01 09:27:04 2014.
Lets say column A and column B and each column has rows containing values in the above format. How can we find the difference between two dates?
Mon Dec 01 09:27:04 2014 - Sun Nov 30 11:08:36 2014 = 25 hrs 51 minutes
Please see this for how to do that..
A more direct answer: you can format the cell
=TEXT(B2-A2,"h:mm")
I suspect the data is text strings for which I suggest:
=VALUE(MID(A1,9,2)&"/"&MID(A1,5,3)&"/"&RIGHT(A1,4))-VALUE(MID(B1,9,2)&"/"&MID(B1,5,3)&"/"&RIGHT(B1,4))+(MID(A1,12,8)-MID(B1,12,8))
However this relies on Excel's ability to interpret the likes of Dec as the month of December which may not be the case for all language versions. If so, I suggest a lookup table and extracting the dates with DATE along these lines:
=DATE(RIGHT(A1,4),VLOOKUP(MID(A1,5,3),Table,2,0),MID(A1,9,2))
However by such calculation the difference of the timestamps given in the question is:
22 hrs 18 minutes 28 seconds
when formatted:
[hh] "hrs" mm "minutes" ss "seconds"
How do I exclude the February 29 - Leap Year in a Date column in Cognos 10 Report Studio?
This is the column that I'm using for my date prompt
Below is the prompt that I applied on the date column
Depicted below is the details and properties of the date prompt that I will use to filter my report using the date prompt.
So all attributes and measures in the report are filtered using the start date and end date of the expiration date column I used on the report.
How do I avoid the February 29th to add up in my calculated columns (measures)? I want to get all calculation from January 1 to Dec 31 without february 29 that happens every four years? The February 29 data may or may not include a large amount but it has a ripple effect at the year end calculation. That's why I want to exclude Feb 29 included in the computation.
Here's a filter expression that will exclude "leap days":
not (extract(month,[Policy Expiration Date]) = 2 and extract(day,[Policy Expiration Date]) = 29)
Kindly try this.
([Policy Expiration Date] between ?Expiration Start Date? and ?Expiration End Date?)
AND
to_char([Policy Expiration Date],'mmdd') <> '0229'
