Plz help with Dax

jackisc — Fri, 02 Feb 2024 16:14:49 GMT

My clock in and clock out date is in rows.

Below DAX helped me subtract the break time of 45 minutes from the employees who worked 8hrs or more perday since it's mandatory. However, I wanted to edit it to include another clause where if employee who works 6hrs or less then "Do not deduct break time" but I am unable to make it work. Any suggestions on how I can achieve this with current DAX? Also, if there is better and easier way to achieve the end results please suggest that as well. Thank you!

Target Wrk Hrs =

VAR _a =

SUMX ('Table1',

IF (

[Index] = 2,

DATEDIFF (

CALCULATE (

MAX ('Table1'[Check-in or Check-out Time] ),

FILTER ('Table1', [Index] = 1

&& [Check-in or Check-out Time] < EARLIER ( 'Table1'[Check-in or Check-out Time])

&& [Enter Reporting Date] = EARLIER ( [Enter Reporting Date] )

[Check-in or Check-out Time],

VAR _c=

VAR _d = ( _a - _c ) / 60

RETURN

* MOD ( _a - _c, 60 )

Hi jackisc ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. In Power Query -- add Column – Index Column – From 1.

2. Create calculated column.

Date_time = [Date]+[Time]

Test01 = var _last= MAXX( FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Index.1]=EARLIER('Table'[Index.1])-1&&'Table'[In/Out]="In"),[Date_time]) return DATEDIFF( _last, [Date_time] , HOUR)

Test02 = var _result= IF( [Test01]=BLANK(), MAXX( FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Index.1]=EARLIER('Table'[Index.1])+1&&'Table'[In/Out]="Out"),[Test01]),[Test01]) return IF( _result>=8,"8hr - subtracting 45 minutes of break time","6hr - no need to subtract break time")

3. Result:
