calculation between non consecutives rows
Hello everyone,
I am trying to calculate the total hours and months between service gaps for each employee. I am creating a list of employees who qualify for a benefit. I thought identifying the last gap to reset the count of months and hours was enough, but I realized an employee qualifies if they meet the rules even if they have a gap in service later.
Could you guys help me out?

Thanks for the reply fromlbendlin ,please allow me to provide another insight:
Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:
1.First I have created the following table and the column names and data are the data you have given:
2.Create calculated column references:
predate = VAR currentdate = 'kk'[date] RETURN IF ( 'kk'[gap] = "gap", MAXX ( FILTER ( 'kk', 'kk'[gap] = "gap" && 'kk'[date] < currentdate && 'kk'[id] = EARLIER ( kk[id] ) ), 'kk'[date] ), BLANK () )diffhour = DATEDIFF('kk'[predate],'kk'[date].[Date],HOUR)diffmonth = DATEDIFF('kk'[predate],'kk'[date].[Date],MONTH)3.Here's my final result, which I hope meets your requirements.
4.Here is the relevant documentation:
DATEDIFF function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
Can you share sample data and sample output in tabular format if I am misunderstanding? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data. We can better understand the problem and help you.
Please find the attached pbix relevant to the case.
