MIN/MAX EDITOR QUERY

I need to create two columns in the query editor, one that brings the minimum time and one that brings the maximum time of each category. According to print. I need to do this in the query editor. M. I know I could do it in DAX but it does not answer me. Can you help me?

    Ok, you can do this in DAX also, which is dynamic and faster.Select New Table under Modelling tab and use this formula :

     

    Newtable = GROUPBY('Table_1','Table_1'[Category],"Max_Time_NewColumn",MAXX(CURRENTGROUP(),'Table_1'[Time] ), "Min_Time_New_Column", MINX(CURRENTGROUP(),'Table_1[Time]))

     

    This will gie you the max and min values for each category and most importantly without duplicating your data.

     

    Thanks

    Hi

     

    Kind Request : If you post the data in Editable( should be able to do copy/paste)  instead of posting the snapshot of data, that will help the members to help you :)

     

    1. Duplicate your source table in Query Editor and do Group by "Category" for Max of Time as shown below:

     

     

    2. The above step will produce a table with max /min of time for each category.

    3. Now, Go to the  original table and do "Merge" with the new Grouped table based on "Category".

    4. Expand the merged column and retain the Max & min of time column, you will get the desired output.

     

     

    Thanks

      My data has more than 20 million rows, so duplicating and doing merge would be difficult.
