Totals based on Min & Max

Hi

I have a table (below), and I want to calculate the turnover of staff using the Min & Max Month.  I have highlighted the data I need to show as a summary

I want to show the following as a table.  How do I do it ?

Hi

use following expression in the pivot table without any DIMENSION

Sum({$<[Start_Month]={"$(=Date((Min(Start_Month)), 'MM/DD/YYYY'))"}>} [Staff in post at start of Month]  )

Sum({$<[Start_Month]={"$(=Date((Max(Start_Month)), 'MM/DD/YYYY'))"}>}[Staff in post at end of Month]  )

=Date((Max(Start_Month)), 'MM/DD/YYYY')

=Date((Min(Start_Month)), 'MM/DD/YYYY')

sum([Sum(Leavers)])

and about this metric :

Avg Month Staff Count : 20


I am getting  as 18.8 ............please check and confirm the calculation for this field ?

Do you have a field in your source for Leavers, or are you calculating it? How are  you setting min and max months?

Yes there is a field for leavers, and I have calculated the min / max by creating an expression min(Start_Month) / Max(Start_Month), then used the selection to determine start and end points.

Hope that makes sense

Slight adjustment needed for UK dates, but worked well.

In regards to the Avg headcount.  The average in a total of start count (18) & end count (22) then divided by 2

18+22 = 40

40 / 2 = 20
