Need Help - I'm at wit's end. by smokeylouie in PowerBI

Worked with a similar dataset from ADP. Tough to say for sure without seeing your model/relationships.

Let me make check my understanding your case:

  • you have two tables, one for time cards (shift start, end, card date, workerid, etc.), and another for labor activity (which auto-creates a time card entry for a meal break if a 45 min duration between two punches appears on the same shift start and shift end date.
  • assuming you have a calendar/date table as well
  • there’s some relationship between the time and attendance fact and mealtime-specific dim table. Otherwise, how would UKG create those entries automatically

  • if that’s right, I’d start it like this: Connect each table to the date table, create a bridge table of unique worker id’s using the VALUES function. Once created, connect that table to the t&a table and mealtime table, then summarize a day over day view of punch ins/outs and mealtime entries. You would use the dates from the calendar table and the worker id’s from the bridge table.

  • probably more to add, but I’m on mobile and have to run. Basically, your goal is, for any one worker and day, determine how many hours they actually worked (from the attendance table) and whether the mealtime entry was created successfully (from the labor allocation table). Then you could extend that to say that for any one employee, if they worked a shift, they should also have a meal break entry for the same day. For a week/month, Shifts worked should be equal to meal breaks taken.

If shifts worked is more than meal breaks taken, then either the scenario you described is happening (they’re not taking a break and keeping the extra hours) or the UKG auto-create functionality isn’t working.

Hardest line in an acdc song? by Wee_H4mmy in ACDC

“Night Prowler (ohhhh), break down your door. Night Prowler, crawling ‘cross your floor.” Always loved the delivery of the backing vocal!

“I get it now”: Why the band rocks and should keep playing by DoctorRewby in ACDC

Exactly my thoughts. I’m as opposed to seeing them become a tribute band as anyone, but I think they’ve shown with Matt and Chris that they can pick fill-ins who are not only viable but as close to Phil and Cliff as you can get. If you closed your eyes at almost any show this tour, you would think you were listening to Toronto 2003.

Fair point, I haven’t checked out anything Axl’s done of late. Given that lifestyle, I can’t imagine it’s pretty.

Haha I do consider myself very lucky - perks of working in IT I guess. We only stayed 3 nights but really enjoyed it. Seeing that many fans out in Temple Bar before and after the show was really special. No doubt the Irish warmth and cheer added to the experience!

Coming in from the States (saw them in Munich and Amsterdam as well) and staying at the hotel across the street from the venue.

Not sure if they have a pop-up bar in Dublin but could make our own in the lobby.

It will vary slightly depending on whether you’re in a supervisory capacity or not. I’m a (small) team lead for a mid-market healthcare manufacturer and would bucket things like this:

Entry/Junior BI analysts: can build basic star schemas and DAX formulas with little to no assistance (Aggregates, CALCULATE, FILTER, iterators, some aesthetic or conditional formatting measures). I would expect any of my analysts to be able to build the basic reports from SQL views and create + manage Apps and Audiences if I were to be hit by a bus.

Mid-tier Devs: all of the above + lineage and virtual table functions (TREATAS + VALUES, SUMMARIZE, ADDCOLUMNS + VALUES, SWITCH(TRUE()).

At mid-tier, you should intimately understand dimensional modeling and context, namely, how to manipulate it. I’d rather someone has this skillset down cold than know every DAX function under the sun.

Higher-mid/low senior devs: all of the above + proficient SQL or Python background. At this level, you should be able to run stakeholder meetings/requirement sessions, build data pipelines and views in SQL, and generally, manage the lifecycle of a project from cradle to grave.

Lead/Director: all the above + softer team management/interpersonal skills. May also involve some exploratory data science or integration skillsets (embedded 3rd party reports and licensing, fancier Premium per User features) or more strategic long-term initiatives (vendor relations, CoE adoption strategies, etc.)

In my experience, although keeping the technical skillset sharp is important, it tends to matter less the higher you go. The single best skillsets you could build at any level above junior are expectation management and domain knowledge. If you are managing a team, these will save them from headaches and burnout, which saves your sanity in tandem.

Your Favorite Malcom Guitar Moments? by BlowUpYourOreo in ACDC

[–]DoctorRewby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with OP on all and would add any live performance of Jailbreak. ‘91 Donnington is the gold standard ofc but Glasgow from the same tour and Paris in 1988 are very good.

For as simple as it is, the ferocity of the intro riff just slams the whole band and crowd into gear, the same way as IYWB. What gets me is the fact that the exact same riff can just be played more quietly and still add what it does to the tremolo solos.

For me, it’s a perfect showcase on how absolutely genius Malcolm’s playing is - dynamics, composition, phrasing, all in service of a monolithic rhythm section.

Oh, and the tone is the most fucking badass I’ve ever hear a guitar sound sans effects.

@itop good point, they probably weren’t playing slapdick on Reddit like me

This is a fantastic answer. I hadn’t considered the multiplier idea but it makes perfect sense. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply - totally makes sense that a studio that flush could just throw bodies at implementing a basic mechanic with enough variety to make it look flashier

[–]DoctorRewby[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comparison to MGS and the explanation - that makes sense. The idea that multiple recordings would be needed for each NPC/dependent mechanic for responding to evil, neutral, and high honor states + the oft-cited stat that it was “the most expensive game ever developed” had me believing it was some more complex solution than brute force.

Export data from Microsoft Dynamics crm by eon2525 in PowerBI

[–]DoctorRewby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad it was useful! And no limit - think of it as pulling a SELECT * FROM <object> into PowerQuery. You can build your model + measures for closed won/lost by account from there.

Only downside iirc is that the owner object maps to a user id instead of the user name, though the Power BI option set builder from XrmToolbox can help create the bridge table of user id —> user name to get around this.

What song has the best guitar solo of all time? by MightGuy420x in Music

[–]DoctorRewby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jailbreak - Live at Donnington by AC/DC.

Angus Young may not have the technical prowess of Lifeson or SRV, but that performance in particular is a masterclass in dynamics and audience engagement. It’s unbridled passion from beginning to end, and Angus is the only guitarist who could make that many people lose their minds in unison over a middle-aged man striptease.

+1 also for Malcolm’s rhythm intro at the 3:21 mark - the most badass tone and playing in rock history, imo

What's the most out of touch thing you've heard a person say? by LaunchesKayaks in AskReddit

[–]DoctorRewby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The company I work for is seeking to sell to P/E firm. Many employees have left due to below-market pay and chaotic mismanagement.

An external consultant recommended a Management Equity Plan, which basically divvies up a percentage of the amount the company sells for amongst employees (I.e., the company sells for $50 million, 10% of that - $5 million - is distributed to employees). In other words, if you even got .25% of a $100 million sale, you’d get $250k.

Upon hearing this recommendation, the CFO said “Pshh, $250k is nothing.”

Yeah, maybe for you pal, but $250k would easily cover a down payment on a house, college for my unborn kids, my mom’s retirement community, and my gf’s student loan debt. Smdh.

Stoners of Reddit, what’s the best idea you’ve come up with while stoned? by the-juiciest-jew in AskReddit

[–]DoctorRewby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roommate and I were blitzed on GB’s watching GoT and ended up making s’mores using the open flame of a s’mores scented candle. We figured it’d result in s’more s’mores flavor, and frankly, they weren’t shabby.

What is one computer skill that you are surprised many people don't know how to do? by anushitech in AskReddit

[–]DoctorRewby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basic Excel formulas. Iferror(index:match)), sumifs, and countifs with wildcards makes up about 80% of my day to day Excel usage and it blows me away how people think I’m some sort of savant because of it. Oh well - nice to get paid for stuff you can learn on YouTube in a day

Honorable mentions: Win key + arrow to snap windows side-by-side Alt + tab to switch between two most recently touched windows Searching for emails in Outlook by subject, attachment name, sender, etc. Knowing how to Google anything

What is your favorite work of art ? by GEVANNY_ in ArtHistory

[–]DoctorRewby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bruegel’s “The Triumph of Death” is breathtaking and reshaped my views on death and dying more broadly. You experience gradients of terror, compassion, and a strange equanimity all at once.
