Calculate date base on date row and create duplicates

Hi guys

 

njxfoster_0-1707433336832.png

 

I want to create duplicate row which show duration of a event.

 

For example, "SetupsStart"=1/26    "AgentsAll In" =1/30

 

I want to create extra rows which cover the period which the result will come out as

 

SetupsStart1/26/2024
SetupsStart1/27/2024
SetupsStart1/28/2024
SetupsStart1/29/2024
AgentsAll In1/30/2024

 

Is there anyway to achieve this ?

 

Thanks in advances!!!

Hi @njxfoster 

 

I have provided a way to solve your problem:

 

Here's some dummy data

 

"Table"

You can create a new date table with the time range "01/26/2024" to "01/30/2024".

Date = CALENDAR("1/26/2024", "1/30/2024")

Create a measure. Determine the date range and fill in the value.

Event = 
var start_date = 
    CALCULATE(
        MAX('Table'[Date]), 
        FILTER(
            ALL('Table'), 
            'Table'[Event] = "SetupsStart"
        )
    )
var end_date = 
    CALCULATE(
        MIN('Table'[Date]), 
        FILTER(
            ALL('Table'), 
            'Table'[Event] = "AgentsALL In"
        )
    )
RETURN 
    IF(
        SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date]) >= start_date 
        && 
        SELECTEDVALUE('Date'[Date]) <> end_date, 
        "SetupsStart", 
        "AgentsALL In"
    )

 

Here is the result.

Hi Thank you for your reply! I need a solution that can cover all these event. The solution you provided only cover "SetupStart"and "AgentsAll in". Is there a solution that can cover all the other events (eg LeapStat, PrepStart etc) as well as other events that get added in the future?

Once you have that, what will be your next step?  Some sort of count of days per event?
