Average Number of Employees Present in a month

Hello,

I am having some bit of an issue trying to put everything together here. I am trying to get an average count of employees who are present by month.

I have an employee table:

BuildingID EMPID Enter Date Leave Date
101 4556 1-Jan-21 10/4/2021
105 5664 22-May-21 10/4/2021
109 6772 12-Apr-21 10/4/2021
113 7880 1-Mar-21 10/4/2021
117 8988 22-Jul-21 10/4/2021
121 1009 11-Mar-21 10/4/2021
125 1120 30-Jan-21 10/4/2021
129 1231 20-Jun-21 10/4/2021
133 1342 8-Feb-21 10/4/2021

And then I also have another table that I use to record employee absences,

BuildingID EMPID Absent Date
101 4556 13-Sep-21
101 4556 10-Sep-21
101 4556 18-Sep-21
101 4556 19-Sep-21
101 4556 9-Sep-21
101 4556 7-Sep-21
101 4556 15-Sep-21
101 4556 8-Sep-21
105 5664 23-Aug-21
105 5664 22-Aug-21

I also have a calendar table which is included in the file. I am trying to create a matrix table with building in the row, months in the column, and calculate the Average Number of Employees Present in a month.
I have tried to create a summarized date table and create indexes to get employee count but it did not work as I was visualizing. I am attaching a sample copy below.

I am also attaching a screenshot of my work below.

Any ideas, help, or even suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Supergallagher25,

I am a bit confused with your model and what you are trying to achieve. It would be helpful to see a mocked up version of the result you wish to achieve.

In the first table, what is enter date? Is this the date they entered the leave request? why is that in the employee table?

Then the second table has some leave in Aug & Sept. Technically they would all be present sometime in the month so there isn’t an average. Do you want average number in a building on a workday?

The Enter dates in the Employee table are from when they started working in that building. The leave date is the date they left.

The absence table shows the days they were absent.

The numerator would be the number of Employees and the denominator would be all the employees working in that building here.

I can’t really show the sample here since I myself am currently struggling with the calculation.

However, this screenshot might help. It’s a summarized table. However, I am also trying to bring in the Building ID column here. I am still figuring out how to do that.

I am trying to get the Building ID, Work_Date,Month, test_sum(counts the number of employees absent), and another column that would show the counts of the number of employees on that particular building.

I have first tried to work out the count of who is in the building ignoring absent days for the moment with this measure

Not quite working though :frowning:

Thank you so much for trying to help. Do you know if there is a way I could count the number of students that are in the building that day?
