Employee count by month
I've been asked to build out a card that shows employee count by month, this seems easy enough until you try and factor in the termination date. What is expected is to show in each month the total active employees, so if employee A is hired on Jan 1st and terminated Feb 15th he would show as a count of 1 in January and a…

Record count for prior month or prior quarter at start of the year
I have a Beast Mode that I've been using that was working fine up until January 1st. The issue is that I have a number of Beast Modes that are calculating record counts for Prior Month, Prior Quarter and Prior 2 Quarters past.

Single number selection from a group of numbers (Like random selection but from a controlled source)
I've got a very unusual issue. I need to select a group of workorder numbers that meet a certain selection criteria, and then from those select one. In the perfect world it would be random.

Using IN Beast Mode for multiple matches won't SUM
I've got a Beast Mode I built and it calculates as expected except that instead of returning the sum value of all matches it returns a row for each match. Here is the Beast Mode: SUM(Case when `title`IN ('Metal Technician','Refinish Technician','Frame Technician','Prepper','Mechanic') then (Case when…

Removing Comma's from string in Beast Mode Numeric Values
I have a Beast Mode that I'm using to trim a value from a string, the issue is that the trim contains a comma which prevents me from treating the resulting values as a number and therefore suming the totals.
