EARLIER Function too Slow!

rogerthat — Thu, 13 Jul 2023 13:55:27 GMT

Hi,

I currently have the below calculated column and I suspect the EARLIER function is taking most of the memory when I try to refresh.

ObjectIndex =

CALCULATE (

COUNT ( DATA[ID ),

ALLEXCEPT ( DATA, DATA[ID )),

DATA[Date )<= EARLIER ( DATA[Date] ) )

)

StatusStreak is dependent on the above.

DATA REFERENCE:

ID	Status	Date	StatusStreak	ObjectIndex

Is there an alternative to what I'm trying to do without having to impact performance?

rogerthat You could try this:

ObjectIndex = VAR __Date = MAX(DATA[Date]) VAR __Return = CALCULATE ( COUNT ( DATA[ID ), ALLEXCEPT ( DATA, DATA[ID )), DATA[Date )<= __Date ) ) ) RETURN __Return
