Second last order

Hi, im new with Power BI and it feels already like a very strong program for analyze and visualize. Right now I have been using very simple measures and want to go futher but im geting stuck with some things.

We say i have this data,

Columns Member id, Order id and delivery date

Two members with 5 orders each that we have delivered to them

Member ID 10
Order ID = 27 Delivery date = 2017-09-12

Order ID = 35 Delivery date = 2017-09-17

Order ID = 42 Delivery date = 2017-09-20

Order ID = 50 Delivery date = 2017-09-27

 

Member ID 11
Order ID = 11 Delivery date = 2017-09-03
Order ID = 16 Delivery date = 2017-09-11
Order ID = 22 Delivery date = 2017-09-15
Order ID = 30 Delivery date = 2017-09-29

I want to in a table on my report show the second last order and if it works how many days between last and second last for each Member id.

So i want to show something like this:


Member id     Second last order     Days

10                        2017-09-20            5

11                        2017-09-15           14

    This measure shall get you the difference in days between last and second last order

     

    Days =
VAR Secondlastorder =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( Table1[Order ID] ),
        FILTER ( Table1, Table1[Order ID] < MAX ( Table1[Order ID] ) )
    )
VAR LastOrder =
    MAX ( Table1[Order ID] )
RETURN
    DATEDIFF (
        CALCULATE (
            VALUES ( Table1[Delivery Date] ),
            Table1[Order ID] = Secondlastorder
        ),
