I have a sample data with Survey waves (from 5 different time periods 1 to 5).
Need help in creating the below 3 columns highlighted in green.
1. Latest Wave column: Need to create a new column in Power BI using DAX. This should be based on "Maximum" value from Survey_Wave column. If true 1 or else 0.
2. Previous Wave column: Need to create a new column in Power BI using DAX. This should be based on "Maximum" value -1 from Survey_Wave column. If true 1 or else 0.
3. Last 3 waves columns: Need to create a new column in Power BI using DAX. This should be based on "Top 3" value from Survey_Wave column. If true 1 or else 0.
It is important to note that the code should be dynamic as the Survey_Wave column over time will get more values (6, 7 .... etc going forward in time)
