    It looks like it is correctly calculating the difference between rows (regardless of the Process).  If you'd like to keep the Process in context, you need to add VALUES('Main Table'[Process]) to your Calculate().

I would start by dropping your ALLSELECTED and not using CALCULATE.

 

See my article on Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) which uses EARLIER: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Mean-Time-Between-Failure-MTBF-and-Power-BI/ba-p/339586

 

I have a great version of that in my book, DAX Cookbook. If you can post sample data, I'll try to adapt it for your situation. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
