Being an Sap HANA modelling professional, who’s trying to enhance my Power BI skills, this is exactly the front end modelling functionalities I need to learn! Thanks!
Thank you very much for this video. As a CFO and new Power BI "addicted" it is just the matter I was looking for. Your examples are very clear to understand.
Hi, This is excellent. In this tutorial you are making comparison on a month basis. Since you have actual and budgeted data on a product wise please also make a comparison product wise. This will be more productive.
Echoing what a few others mentioned, there isn't a connection from the [Budget Data] Table to the [Date] table to be able to only return the related year's budget amount. I'm wondering what is the best practice for connecting the Budget to the Date so that this model works as you've shown. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. Good explanation. Now I have a severial years budget with different currency which need to divide to the correct fiscal year and convent currency to SEK as well. I´d like to have your opinions how to solve the puzzle. Is that possible for you to have a look on that? If so, how can I share my files with you? Thanks. Br/Mia
I'm very interested in the Budgeting & Forecasting mini-series on your website but I'm not able to sign up. When I click on Start, I'm directed to a page that says 'Enroll in Course to Unlock'. When I click that button I'm taken back to the Budgeting & Forecasting mini-series page. Is this course still available? If so, how do I escape the endless loop and sign up for the course? TIA!

Usually in organization we look at numbers weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly. Maybe you could do something with the week perspective? Also, nowadays it is pretty common to have the actual top level sales budget broken down all the way into the actual sales persons. So maybe something with that? I've had excellent experiences using Power BI monitor & track actual sales and the sales budget by org, team and personal level. Sales guys love it also, they can see their personal running goal on any device and see what's up.
All you have to do to look at this anything other than daily is to use exactly the same technique but change the context of the calculation via a different dimension from you date table. Yes I agree those are good examples of budgeting scenarios. You could achieve them with similar techniques used in this video with slight tweaks. In time I plan to complete more budgeting examples, will add this to a very long list!
Cumulative Budget - Sam great video, but I am struggling to get the cumulative formula to work so that I can create a line graph with cumulative Daily Sales and cumulative Daily Budget for a month. Did I miss something in this video?
Thank you for the informative Power BI techniques. Could you please also demostrate how to make the budget follow the seasonality of the prior year actuals, rather than having the same budget each day. For example, the budget should reflect that a day in December typically has stronger sales than a day in July.
If you have a monthly budget table and a daily sales table, what do you think of "faking" a finer granularity by adding a date column (using Power Query) set to the final day of each day of the month in the budget table? That way you can simply connect the two tables to the calendar table. This works provided you don't need to drill down budget vs. sales at an even smaller granularity (like by day as in your example).
Sure you could do it, but I still think that getting the allocation algorithm right so you can dynamically change the context and it will still work is ultimately a better solution. Chrs
Hello there. I have a sales table and a budget table for a network of stores. Now I need to create a relationship between these tables so that I am able to see both budget and actual sales per month per store but unfortunately the relationship just can't happen. May you please assist? Thanks.
I was wondering what do I need to add to the budget measure if I have multiple year in my budget table? When I use your formula it gives me the same budget for all the different years. Maybe it is link to the fact that I'm not able to link my budget table to the dates table.
I have done product wise variance analysis. Can you just guide me that the normalization is perfect or not. I am enclosing here my pbix file from my google drive. drive.google.com/open?id=0B5eKgvOGu5MLRERnZURjYlVwVHM. Is there any way to make my for the month dynamic and link it to the last selected month i.e. September 2017.

Hi Daison, for help like this check out the Enterprise DNA Support Forum - forum.enterprisedna.co/search?q=Sales%20Table%20Budget%20Table
@@EnterpriseDNA Hey Enterprise, I'm trying to achieve this also to get to the next level of granularity! Cheers.
How would you alter the model if your budget is on monthly instead of yearly level? Monthly variations aren't taken into account then.
Check out this workshop where I run through this in-depth (as well as many other budgeting techniques) - ua-cam.com/video/n_Ki8XA4cCY/v-deo.html
Thanks, will do!

Yes that's correct. You would likely want to make sure your visualizations are only filtered for the particular year that requires the budget
