Total Number Of Staff Over Time

Posted on by Annie D

In this example we are attempting to work out how many staff we have at any one time.

The technique discussed here are relevant for when you have a table with multiple dates in it and you need to run logic through that table to work out if an employee is still a staff member at any period of time.

This is also the technique to use if you want to showcase staff numbers or growth through time.

We utilise the correct relationship technique and also the ‘events in progress’ pattern to get this all to work successfully in Power BI.

How to Sort Data from Left to Right in Excel

Posted on by Annie D

In this video, learn how to sort data from left to right in Excel.

Mostly we get datasets that are arranged in columns (with headers in a row). This is the top to a bottom format which most of us are used to. And when you sort this data, you sort it from top to bottom.

But sometimes, you may have to work with data which is on rows (i.e., the headers are in a column). And if you want to sort this data, you will have to sort it from left to right.

In this video, I show two ways of sorting the data in Excel from left to right:
1. Using the inbuilt left to right sorting feature in Excel
2. By first copying and transposing the data, sorting it from top to bottom, and then copying and transposing it back again.

While using the inbuilt left-to-right sort feature is more convenient, a lot of people prefer transposing it as they are used to top to bottom data format.

I also cover how to create custom sorting criteria in Excel. For example, when you sort the data by region from left to right, you end up with – East, North, South, and West.

This is because the data has been sorted alphabetically.

But what if you want to sort it in the following order – East, West, North, South.

To do this, you need to create a custom sorting criteria which you can then use to sort the data (left to right or top to bottom both).
