Challenge
Diagnose Non-Additive Headcount Behavior
Create explicit measures for hires, snapshot headcount sum, and average base salary. Add them to a table visual alongside Date[Quarter] to observe how additive, semi-additive, and non-additive metrics behave across period boundaries.
-
Challenge
Calculate Point-in-Time Headcount
Transition from flawed iterative summation to a Point-in-Time snapshot measure pattern by evaluating active workforce status as of a single date boundary. And fix the invalid summation total across month, quarter, and year contexts.
-
Challenge
Calculate Attrition Metrics
Build an explicit flow measure for Terminations, calculate a dynamic Average Headcount across monthly snapshot periods using an iterator, and combine them into a robust Attrition Rate metric.
-
Challenge
Validate Measure Accuracy
Compare the Headcount measure output to existing HR benchmark and rectify the discrepancy.
