Formula to work out % of days lost

Hello,
I am working on an absence query, and I need to be able to work out the total % of days lost for a specific org unit.
Currently I have my query looking like thisu2026
.....................Actual time offu2026..% of days lost
Chief execu2026u2026u2026505u2026u2026u2026u2026.....(505/1946*100)
Env Servu2026u2026u2026..642u2026u2026u2026u2026......(642/1946*100)
Schoolsu2026u2026u2026u2026.799u2026u2026u2026u2026.....(799/1946*100)
Totalu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026.1946u2026u2026u2026..
Where the bracket is I want to be able to create a formula to work this out. Currently the total in the rows is a simple formula, but unfortunately I cant use this total in the formula Iu2019m trying to create in the columns.
Does anyone know how I can do this?
Thanks in advance

Hi Forhad,
Yes you can create the formula you want.
Have you tried the function %A and SUM(GT) or %GT.
You will be able to build your formula using these functions.
Check this link.

Formula for working out costs by hourly rates...

I have a formula currently which adds up all my hours in a column... I also want to have another formula that adds up all my hours and then multiplies the figure by 80 and gives me a result in dollar value... Any ideas anyone?

Hi Tom,
Much depends on the way you have recorded your hours and found the sum. If the sum is a number of the form 39.8 (or similar), then the formula is simply
=K9*80
where K9 is the total hours you spent 'working like a dog', and $80/hour is the rate of pay. Format (using the cell format Inspector) the cell containing the formula as "Number" or as "Currency" and specify 2 places after the decimal. The difference between the two formats in that "Currency"adds the currency symbol to the number displayed.
If your total hours is not displayed as a whole number plus decimal fraction, then more detail will be needed before anyone is able to provide you with a useful formula.

How do you work out the number of days difference between two dates?

I'm running Crystal v12.
We use a date field in our SQL database that we use to store the client's year end date.
As the year end date (date and month) doesn't change for a client, the year end date field in all of our reports is set to just show the DD/MM part. Over the years as new clients are set up we just enter the date and month - the year part is irrelevant although as in all date fields the year is automatically entered.
Doing it this way means that we don't have to adjust the year end year part each year. We just use the DD/MM part.
I need to create a formula that works out the number of days there have been (i.e. the difference) from the current date to the year end date. It MUST EXCLUDE the year however.
For example:
Year End Date = 30/04/03
Current Date = 25/05/10
Days Difference (EXCLUDING year) = 25
Days Difference (including year) = 2582
Year End Date = 31/03/09
Current Date = 25/05/09
Days Difference (EXCLUDING year) = 55
Days Difference (including year) = 420
If you include the year part then working out day difference is simply a case of creating a formula that subtracts the year end date from the current date (CurrentDate - {tblClient.YearEnd}.
HOWEVER I need to exclude the year part.
Can anyone tell me the formula or best way to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You can try this
datevar e := date(year(currentdate),month({tblClient.YearEnd}),day({tblClient.YearEnd}));
numbervar num_days := datediff("d",currentdate,e)
Create a datevar called e that uses the original month and day numbers for {tblClient.YearEnd} but uses the year of the current date
Then just datediff on e to get the number of days between the two dates
I hope i understand your problem and that this helps

I have an iphone 2g unlocked for tmobile. For the past 2 years it has worked fine then out of no where I get this message "your selected cellular network is no longer available" and the service cuts in and out all day. It can't find tmobile on my phone?

I have an iphone 2g unlocked for tmobile. For the past 2 years it has worked fine then out of no where I get this message "your selected cellular network is no longer available" and the service cuts in and out all day. It can't find tmobile on my phone for some reason but for 2 years previous it could no problem? tmobile says it is a problem with my phone and not their service.
Any ideas what to do?

I would just explain that this just started happening, that nothing has changed on the phone, that it is an original iPhone and I wondered if they are implementing a change in coverage with their Edge network in my area.
If you restore your phone, you will be given an option to back up your phone at the beginning of the process (see step 6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414). You will be given the option to restore to that backup at the end of the restore process. Your messages are stored in the backup so restoring to the backup will return the messages to your phone. Be sure to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts somewhere before restoring your phone as these sometimesget lost in the restore process.

Have timesheet data. Trying to get staff at risk of burn out (worked 8hrs a day during last 3 weeks)

Hi all,
I've been trying to get a semi-complex measure out for over a day now but seem to be going round in circles. Most frustrating is I don't quite understand why one version throws an error, another throws out the wrong number and then whatever you guys come
up with will give me the correct answer!
I have a workbook uploaded here which I used for a different question, but majority of the data model is the same :
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=1C0322C61F94C9E9&id=1C0322C61F94C9E9%21125
What I'm trying to do is find staff members that are at risk of burn out (eg consistently working > 8hrs a day)
My main timesheet table (Time) is as such:
StaffID (fk to staff table)
ClientID (fk to client table)
TaskID (fk to task table)
TimesheetDate (fk to date table)
EffortInHrs
my date dim is standard fare, only thing i've added is an EndOfWeekDate (eg EOWDate. sunday is the last day therefore for each date for this week the endofweekdate column = 18-jan. For last week it was 11-Jan etc) and I also have a 'last freshed date' that
shows the last time the model was refreshed
A staff member can only record time against a specific task once per day, but they can have multiple tasks across multiple clients for one day
The business rule im working with is
if they've worked more than 8hrs at least once in the last 3 weeks (dates that fall between EOWdate for 'now' minus 3 weeks and EOWdate for 'now' ), then return the sum of EffortInHrs for all clients for every day in the last 3 weeks
I've given up in getting it in one go so i'm trying to cobble together a number of calc columns and measures to get me closer.. but it all seems to stall
eg the following calc column (DailySumOfHrs)
=
CALCULATE (
SUM ( [EffortInHours] ),
FILTER (
ALLEXCEPT ( TIME, 'Time'[TimesheetDate], TIME[StaffID] ),
DATESBETWEEN (
'Date'[Date],
'time'[TimesheetDate],
'Time'[TimesheetDate]
gives me the sum of effort in hrs for the day for each staff member. I couldn't get a measure version of this working. It would either aggregate across all days/staff or give context errors.
So when I tried to take it to the next step to find the max using the same formula
=
CALCULATE (
SUM ( [EffortInHours] ),
FILTER (
ALLEXCEPT ( TIME, 'Time'[TimesheetDate], TIME[StaffID] ),
DATESBETWEEN (
'Date'[Date],
'time'[TimesheetDate],
'Time'[TimesheetDate]
I get errors, i'm guessing because i'm mixing my fact and date tables now and it doesn't know it can use the TimeSheetDate 'context' to filter.
To get the 'last 3 weeks' filter working I added the following to the date dim
=if([EndOfWeek]<[RefreshDateLocal] +7 && [EndOfWeek] > [RefreshDateLocal] -14,1,0)
i then used it in an intermediate measure to get the max at the weekly grain
WeeklyMax :=
IF (
MAX ( 'Date'[Last3WeeksFilter] ) = 1,
CALCULATE (
MAX ( TIME[DailySumOfHrs] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Date'[date] ),
MAX ( 'Date'[EndOfWeek] ) = MAX ( 'Date'[EndOfWeek] )
'Date'[Last3WeeksFilter] = 1
BLANK ()
and finally the measure itself
BurntOutHrs:=if([WeeklyMax]>8,SUM([EffortInHours]),blank())
I am not happy with this at all. There are so many conditions (eg filters added) that need to be satisfied for this to return a sensible result and I need to expose a number of the 'backend' filters that users would need to add to the report to get the correct
answer.
As is, it only works for a simple Staff, date, burntouthrs report. If users attempt to create their own pivot table/chart and try to break it down by client or task it doesn't look right at all. I'd also like to be able to count how much stuff are working
long hrs but this approach wouldn't support that at all.
I could probably post dozens of my attempted dax that to me logically look like it should work but either aggregate wrong or throw context errors. Unfortunately my current approach to dax still is to try various, almost random variations until one works
for whatever reason
I always aim to have a measure that 'just works' in all contexts where it makes logical sense. For me to get that happening here i'd probably need to spend another few hrs trying all kinds of allexcept() conditions for each filter where i want it to work
and hope none contradict each other
Thinking about it now, this isn't really a separate measure at all.. i think a better approach would be to add a calc column to the staff table that checks if that staff member has >8hrs assigned for any day (i dont think the default time->staff relationship
would allow this though). But i'm still interested on how to accomplish it using the separate 'measure' approach
I'll go spend the rest of today trying to get the flag working in the staff dim!
Thanks!

My power button has stopped working - seems to have lost it's 'spring'. My phone is over a year old and out of warrenty - any options?

My power button has stopped working - seems to have lost it's 'spring'. My phone is over a year old and out of warrenty - any options? It also seems to be going thru the battery in less than a day which was never the case. Are these two situations related?

I don't know if they are related or not, but I'd take it in to an Apple store. They might be gracious and offer to replace it, or at the least, it may be eligible for an out-of-warranty replacement at a reduced fee (currently $149.00 for the iPhone 4, 3Gs, 3G, and original - you get a refurb as replacement).

Good evening,
after upgrading Iphoto 9.5 a page opened requiring to upgrade my library. As it did not work out,for fear of losing all my pictures I loaded Iphoto 9.4.3 with Time machine but I had lost quite a few photos. As a matter of fact, after searching , I found them In Photo library in 'images' on my hard drive. When I double click, 9.5 appears with all my pictures. Therefore, I would like to use 9.5 just by by clicking on the icon down my finder and not by being obliged to open my hard drive.
Would you please tell me what I should do. Thank you.
Best regards,
Robert

Huh?
As it did not work out,for fear of losing all my pictures I loaded Iphoto 9.4.3 with Time machine but I had lost quite a few photos. As a matter of fact, after searching , I found them In Photo library in 'images' on my hard drive. When I double click, 9.5 appears with all my pictures.
So, you have restored 9.4.3 from Time Machine but can see all your pictures in 9.5?
Do you have two version of iPhoto on your Machine?
And if you didn't update the Library, ("as it did not work out,") how can you see things in 9.5?
So, whatever set up you have is confusing.

Hi I'm a total novice, as you will see. But Iam trying to use template of an employee schedule but when I try to add extra columns it does not add the preset formula with it, so it works out total hours and total pay?   If any one can help please.

Hi Grum,
If the formulas aren't filling to the new column, you must have changed something in the template since you first opened it. Numbers is rather fussy about filling row content in columns as they are added. Only rows with the same expression in every Body Column will fill when a column is added. Just as an experiment, start a new Employee Schedule document from the Template Chooser and then add a column by clicking the Add Column handle in the upper right corner of the table. If that works, as it should, then think about what might have changed in your working document to disconnect that feature. Maybe we can figure it out together.

Help Please - on a VC that works out of the box with MAC before I sellup

I have to declare that I’m somewhat frustrated at the moment and I could do with some good advise please bare with me while I explain.
I have recently converted from all types of PC systems and MS OS to Apple. The conversion was based on a few drivers.
1, My wife finally has decided to “learn” how to do her own web work instead of asking me to look up this or that for her. So as she was starting from scratch I thought MAC.
2, At the same time I had a play with Vista at work and disliked it. I was using XP & W2K at the time.
3, I wanted to update my home hardware, which was 3 years old.
4, The accountant said I hadn’t spent enough on IT last year.
5, New project work in the planning that required video/audio work to upload onto the web and everyone said MAC was the best.
So having looked around and done what I thought was enough research I started investing. To date I’ve invested £4500 plus.
Started by buying
iMAC 24” 2.8 Gz Intel with 4GB ram (for the home office)
MacBook Pro 2.4 with 4GB ram (for out and about working)
iPHONE 16GB (which is great)
VMware Fusion was installed for those things that I couldn’t live without until I found a suitable replacement like MS Money, Paint Shop Pro, MS Office etc. Installed XP.
Tried Open Office found it to clunky and hard work working off files for MS Office that others sent/required. Ended up buying Office 2008 only to find VB macros don’t work in Excel and all my company spreadsheets still need PC MS Excel to run so back into XP via Fusion.
Then to MAIL which is great on the iPHONE as I can easily monitor my 5 email accounts, what a result. But now I come to attach JPG files as I would in outlook and they open into the content of text in the mail and will not stay closed but disrupt the message. Wholly unacceptable to my way of working with no cure.
Scanning next, so I down loaded GIMP to replace PSP which I find useless so back to PSP I go again via XP & Fusion.
Next and finally the VC project, Now please bare in mind that all I want to do is shoot film, upload it to edit it and then mount it on the web page. I have no desire to become any form of expert in the field just get the job done.
So reviewed iMovie to understand the spec. Realise it has limitation and reviewed FCE which seems to plug the gaps and boarders on being more professional.
At this point I must say I’m not totally new to this subject as I have used Studio8 and a JVC GR-DVL166EK video cam a couple of years ago and got on ok without any issues simple plug and play with great results.
Having reviewed the standards that the software is reported to work too without any publicly declared exclusions or exceptions by Apple I went shopping for the VC. (I didn’t know of the forum at the time and to the best of my knowledge Apple don’t advise of its existence in any product information on anything I have bought.)
I buy a Panasonic HDC-HS9 for £700 which doesn’t flaming work despite the fact that it should based on all the standards quoted by both manufactures and there are no disclaimers from either party that it won’t work.
I have reviewed the compatibility list on the support page (now I know its there) and find that the Panasonic HDC-SD5 does work. I reviewed the comprehensive detailed model spec on the Panasonic web site and there is no differences between the to models at all accept the HDD.
So why don’t it work?
*At the end of the day can anyone please recommend a VC that will produce high quality results without the need of a 3rd party software to connect and upload files convert and muck about instead of getting on with the job.*
And if all the publicised specs don’t allow you to conclude compatibility how can you protect your investment? Where do we legally stand and where is the accountability to the consumer.
<edited by host>
I am that fed up with the last 3 months of mucking about Bill Gat*es may just get me back.
Thanking anyone in anticipation for some meaning advise and help.
Regards
Alan

Hi, and thanks for you interest. The problems is that whether I'm using iMovie or FCE I get to a stage where the thumbnail image is present but if you try to play, import or any other action in either app it closes down and a message comes up " The Application Final Cut Express/iMovie quit unexpectedly - Mac OS X and other application are not affected" then asks if I wish to relaunch. I then hit the report to Apple button and afterwards relaunch. I was recommended to use Voltaic which I have tried, it worked but is to much mucking about for something that should work out of the box.
This problem happens on both the iMAC and the MacBook so quite sure it's not a OS software issue. All software update are up to date also.
Any ideas?

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. Is my info safe??

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills. I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number. Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
thanks

If it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you tried resetting the PMU?
I'm not optimistic that this will help any more than the procedures you've already tried, but it won't hurt to try.
Do you still have your OS 9 installation? If so, try booting into OS 9 and see if the problems with the audio are happening there, too. If so, you can bet it's a hardware problem.
How big is your hard drive and how much space remains available on it? If you don't have your OS 9 installation in order to check out whether it's a hardware problem and you have enough available hard drive space, you may want to try an Archive and Install of the OS in order to make sure it isn't an OS X system-wide problem. If that doesn't do it, you could back up your hard drive and restore your software.
All of this may just be spinning your wheels, but it's all stuff you can try before shelling out a lot of money for repairs.

ITV no longer connects Home Share, and Netflix crashes mid movie. This worked on Christmas - day two flop

I know... I searched the forum and this is a very hot topic. But I am not a techie and really don't want to reconfigure my iMac System energy preferences to tell the computer to 'never sleep' and to deselect the 'Put the hard disk(s) to sleep whenever possible.' - which was one support forum posters "fix".
Why did this work Christmas day? I had already updated iTunes to 11.0.1 (12) before we opened and installed iTV. Upon initial setup of iTV we allowed the system to install an update. Everything was functional. We set it up up on our wifi, we created the passcode that iTV needed in settings. We used the AirPlay with iPad 3 and with an iPhone 4s; all very cool. I could access my iMac through iTV. No glitches. Everything worked as it should.
Today we have had nothing but Netflix and that isn't working well. It crashed twice earlier in the day on a short documentary and tonight it happened again 30 minutes into a movie and we had to restart, fortunately it was near where it crashed so we only had to re-watch a few minutes of the movie.
All day iTV has had the error message when you try and operate any Apple based function that 'Home Sharing needs to be turned on in iTunes...' well, my iMac is always on (I know, some of you will cringe. I shut it down about once a month.) and we repeatedly checked iTunes throughout the day and Home Sharing is ON..... is this random performance what we have to look forward to?
If it is some inefficiency in our wifi (another forum posters 'fix'), why was it not an issue on Christmas day? It can't work flawlessly one day and act like a demented PC the next. Come on APPLE. This is not what we expect of your products. iTV is not a new roll out. Bug fix? Software update? Ideas? Someone? Anyone? Thanks...

I bought a brand new iPad 3 and an Apple TV, both connected to the same wpa protected wifi network from home. It worked for a day, but when I woke up, the Apple TV couldn't be found anymore by either iPad, MacBook or iPhone. Anybody a solution for this?

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!
