Pro rata monthly budget by week

  • I need to pro-rata a monthly budget so that a greater proportion is allocated to beginning of month.

    They want it to be:

    working days 1-5 = 40% of total budget

    6-10 = 30%

    10-15 = 20%

    15+ = 10%

    There is a table currently in the system called x_workdates:

    SeqnoDateWeekdayWorkday

    2071 1/09/201651

    20722/09/201661

    20733/09/201670

    20744/09/201610

    20755/09/201621

    Any ideas on the best way to go about this would be great.

    Thanks

    Sounds simple enough. What do you want your output to look like? If you would like help in constructing a working query, please follow the first link in my signature, which will guide you on the information which you need to provide.


  • Thanks, yes I thought it looked easy enough to start, but then i came up with more questions than answers and soon I was going around in circles and got absolutely nowhere. What I'm wondering is whether I should keep trying to write the query based on the table i have, or add a calculated column to the workdays table somehow that says its week no 1 etc. But that then got me in circles again. I'll try to get at least something working. Maybe I should be posting to SSRS that I just found. This was my first post.

    Thanks 🙂
