Active Workers with no Current Position - Power BI Report?

Posted on by 79

Hi,

does anyone know if it is possible to create a report in Power BI to show a list of workers still marked as Active but with no assigned position that is active? I can see from the Personel Management - Analytics - People by Department report that we've got 44 people with no department. I'm pretty sure that these are all people with no active position.

many thanks,

Tom

    RE: Active Workers with no Current Position - Power BI Report?

    Thanks for this - I don't think I've explained the problem I'm having very well.

    I can get a report to show the worker's employment end date, and can show their position end dates as well, the trouble is people may have had 2 or 3 positions in the past, so I need to show people who don't have an active position.

    For example:

    John Smith - Employment End Date - Never. He's had 2 positions - position 1111, assignment start 01/01/2018, assignment end 31/12/2019 - position 2222, assignment start 01/01/2020, assignment end 01/08/2021

    Jane Doe - Employment End Date - Never. She's had 2 positions - position 3333, assignment start 01/01/2018, assignment end 31/12/2019 - position 4444, assignment start 01/01/2020, assignment end 01/08/2025

    I need a report that shows the John Smith is an active employee with no active positions. In the report I've got at the moment I can't filter out Jane Doe as she's also got a position with an end date before today. I can't use the isprimarypostion flag as a filter because John Smith doesn't have a primary position.

    Does that make sense?

    many thanks,

    Tom

    Hi Tom,

    Please use cdm_worker and cdm_employment entity and join based on cdm_workerId. You have to create a measure to get calculate data based on the current date. Please check this blog post.

    Hi,

    yes - that's what I'm trying to do. I'm just struggling on the logic of how the report works - I can't work out how to show active worker records that don't have a current position. Do you know what fields you'd use for the report please?

    many thanks,

    Tom

    Hi Tom,

    You can create a report in Power BI for this. You need to join multiple table to achieve this.
