Hi Sam, Thank you for the nice videos! Do you have any advice om how to calculate the budget allocation for a budget that is given as a number? E.g. without having it on a monthly, quarterly or yearly basis? :)
Hello Katrine, It's always a little bit difficult to judge and provide the results without looking at the data structure, model and working of the PBIX file for the reference.

This is awesome! One quick question--if I have working days only, and not a full month, what are some suggestions for creating the daily allocations. We have staff that do not work on weekends or holidays, so we need daily allocations based on the number of working days, not calendar days
In real life business scenario I used the daily sales from prior year to allocate the budget to days. Moreover I used a mapping table where I assigned to every actual date a prior year date. This allowed me to manually map state holidays and so on. By this I was able to dynamically modify the allocation
Can you please provide me with resources on how you achieved this, I've been actually trying to do the same. In my case I'd like to split the monthly budget, and it should apply to whatever dimension table is used, be it at product lavel, category, subcategory, supplier, or even departments.
Great explanation guys, cheers! After recreating, I've ran into trouble summarizing these Budget Allocations into MTD. While the following Dax seems to aggregate accordingly for my sales column: MTD Sales= CALCULATE(Sales[SalesTotal], DATESMTD('Sales'[SalesDate])) - when i try to run the same for MTD Budget = CALCULATE(Budget[Budget Allocation], DATESMTD('Calendar'[Date])) - the value displayed jumps to the daily Budget Allocation of the next month, rather than cumulate accordingly as datesmtd should. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your brilliant video Sam. I know this was a long time ago, but am struggling a little. I have budgets at a monthly level, but they are defined as the first day of the month rather than month name. I adjusted the formulae appropriately to match the budget date (first day) to the dates table based on the first day of month field. The output gives me the correct value per day in the particular month, however only has value for the 1st of the month. So if budget was £30,000, then against day 1 of a 30 day month, it shows £1,000, however the other days are blank, until the first of the next month. Anybody have any clue?
Really like it! But how do you create that bar with line chart below? I can't align the line in the same scale as my other Y Axis (only align zero). Read that that was impossible at the moment in Power BI.

Thanks for your helpful videos, Sam. I have a question about this particular example. When I apply similar logic to a report that I am working on, filtering by the other tables in the model do not seem to affect the budget calculations. I cannot link those dimensions to the budget table because I receive a 'circular dependency' error. But it looks like you have a link in your model from the budget table to the product ID table. How is that possible? How do I get the dimensions to filter the budget?
There is no relationship between the product budget table and the date table which is why you get the same result for all dates. I believe the Total budget measure need to use TREATAS to create a virtual relationship just as in the monyhlu budget amount measure.
Hi thanks for the tips, but I've run to this issue that the total for the budget allocation is not following the selected dates. I also noticed it when you change the dates in the video. Saw your other video that SumX can solve it but I'm not really sure where do I place the SumX.
Hi TJ Music - Thanks for your interest in Enterprise DNA videos. Issue with "Total" occurs as context changes and Date Filter is not applied.

Struggling with budgets that run on irregular periods. Like say the budget table has a "Budget" column, and the other columns are "BudgetStartMonth&Year" and "BudgetEndMonth&Year". The budget table has thousands of rows due to there being a budget for every product for every customer. I need the budget allocated monthly. Can't use Treatas in this case.

Hi, can i know how you get the DATES[Month & Year]? I have a CALENDAR table which i assume quite similar to your DATES table. But when i want to insert that particular DATES[Month & Year], got error. Can u help? Actually would be very helpful too if you can attach a yearly budget allocation to monthly sales DAX formula. Because mine is actually yearly budget , monthly sales. Got loss when i try to convert that DAX budget allocation formula to year. Thanks

There is no relationship between the product budget table and the date table which is why you get the same result for all dates. I believe the Total budget measure need to use TREATAS to create a virtual relationship just as in the monyhlu budget amount measure.
Hi thanks for the tips, but I've run to this issue that the total for the budget allocation is not following the selected dates. I also noticed it when you change the dates in the video. Saw your other video that SumX can solve it but I'm not really sure where do I place the SumX.
Hi TJ Music - Thanks for your interest in Enterprise DNA videos. Issue with "Total" occurs as context changes and Date Filter is not applied. Best option is to create Virtual tables using Summarize/Add Columns functions and do calculations inside them.

Hi, thanks this really helped me. However, we could improve the calculations based on previous years sales, and removing the need to have a fixed budget calendar year.
(although not per item)
Total Sales Last Year = CALCULATE( SUM(), SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR('Date'[Date]) )
then use this in the Budget Allocation:
Budget Allocation =
VAR DaysInContext = COUNTROWS( 'Dimension Date' )
VAR DaysInMonth = CALCULATE( COUNTROWS( 'Dimension Date' ), ALL( 'Dimension Date' ), VALUES( 'Dimension Date'[Month & Year] ) )
VAR CurrentMonth = SELECTEDVALUE( 'Dimension Date'[Month] )
VAR MonthlyBudgetAmounts =
CALCULATE( [Total Sales Last Year] * 1.075, TREATAS( VALUES( 'Dimension Date'[Month] ), 'Dimension Date'[Month] ) )
RETURN
IF( OR( HASONEVALUE( 'Dimension Date'[Date] ), HASONEVALUE( 'Dimension Date'[Month & Year] ) ),
DIVIDE( DaysInContext, DaysInMonth, 0) * MonthlyBudgetAmounts,
[Total Sales] * 1.075)
With this calculation you can span your budgets for any year, and also get future budgets for the coming months
Does this work for you??
Hello Alex,
I tried your DAX and the numbers did not turn out correct. Why multiply by 1.075?
Struggling with budgets that run on irregular periods. Like say the budget table has a "Budget" column, and the other columns are "BudgetStartMonth&Year" and "BudgetEndMonth&Year". The budget table has thousands of rows due to there being a budget for every product for every customer. I need the budget allocated monthly. Can't use Treatas in this case.

Hi, can i know how you get the DATES[Month & Year]? I have a CALENDAR table which i assume quite similar to your DATES table. But when i want to insert that particular DATES[Month & Year], got error. Can u help? Actually would be very helpful too if you can attach a yearly budget allocation to monthly sales DAX formula. Because mine is actually yearly budget , monthly sales. Got loss when i try to convert that DAX budget allocation formula to year. Thanks
