Hi all, i am tasked with converting an existing excel megalith into an elegant Power BI model. all fun and games, you say... well, normally, yes. add in a deadline and it has become not so all beer and skittles. I have all my data where i want it but now need to start on the visualisations. my data consists of a table that lists all work we are currently undertaking, allocated to particular team members. each of these projects includes a field "% Effort" which records how much effort the team member is going to put in to complete the project. The Effort is a function of FTE and expressed as a percentage. Each project also records a start and finish date. we currently calculate Over or Under Utilisation per team member on a weekly basis where the sum of the effort required across all there projects is compared to their FTE hours (stated as a %). so, if Person A has no projects until the 2nd week in March, this week until the end of the first week would show 0% utilisation. then in the 2nd week in March, they start one project that is fairly complex, requiring 25% of the time, 25% would appear against their name, in the third week, there a bunch of small (say 6) %5 jobs, as well as the initial job, their utilisation would jump accordingly to 55% (the sum of their active jobs). This continues as jobs are added and completed.
In excel, its relatively easy to mark out the weeks across the page and then use greater than and less than to work out which dates are busy, and finally just sum the %s per person.
so, (i think) i need to create a visual that reproduces the look and feel of the excel table. but how?
