Grab value from another row to current row value

Anonymous — Thu, 16 Dec 2021 06:12:41 GMT

Guys- have a question here.

I am trying to grab an Actual FinishDate value from each project and then reflect it in a new column/measure. In this example, for project ID 1000, I like to get the actual FinishDate from Phase Name [milestone 1] and insert it into Phase Name [Phase 1].

Then I will do that for project ID 2000 etc.

I will use the same logic for Phase 2, milestone 2 etc for subsequent projects.

Hi,

Please check the below picture.

It is for creating a new column.

Actual_Milestone CC =
VAR currentproject = Data[Project ID]
VAR currentphasenumber =
RIGHT ( Data[Phase Name], 1 )
VAR filter_only_milestone =
FILTER (
Data,
Data[Project ID] = currentproject
&& CONTAINSSTRING ( Data[Phase Name], "M" )
&& RIGHT ( Data[Phase Name], 1 ) = currentphasenumber
)
VAR milestonedate =
MAXX ( filter_only_milestone, Data[Actual Finishdate] )
RETURN
IF ( Data[Estimate Finishdate] = BLANK (), BLANK (), milestonedate )

Hey! Anonymous

The following Calculated Column works perfectly fine.

NewCol =

VAR rightval =

RIGHT ( 'Table'[Phase Name], 1 )

VAR maxval =

CALCULATE (

MAX ( 'Table'[Actual Date] ),

FILTER (

ALL ( 'Table' ),

EARLIER ( 'Table'[ProjectID] ) = 'Table'[ProjectID]

&& RIGHT ( 'Table'[Phase Name], 1 ) = rightval

&& LEFT ( 'Table'[Phase Name], 1 ) = "M"

)

RETURN

IF ( 'Table'[Estimate Date] = BLANK (), BLANK (), maxval )

Please accept it as a solution if it fulfills your requirement.
