Please help
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @pmadam
You should be able to minimise the use of MIN and reduce resource requirements by using a calculated column such as the following:
Min Value =
VAR _1 = MINX ( { 'Table'[Column1] , 'Table'[Column2] , 'Table'[Column3] , 'Table'[Column4], 'Table'[Column5] } , [Value] )
RETURN
_1
The formula will automatically take into account blanks so there's no need to worry about that.
Hope this helps 🙂
