DAX equivalent to excel Array

Hi,

I have an excel array formula that I need help in writing the DAX eqivalent.

Columns

Station ID

Start Time

End Time

My formula captures the start time of next start per Station ID.

Next Start Time - Excel Array Formula

{=MIN(IF(A3:A$4983=A2,IF(B3:B$4983>C2,B3:B$4983)))}

 

I would like to have this calculated in DAX, but cannot figure out equivalent.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

/tks

@cfstout  you can use a measure like this

NextStart = 
CALCULATE (
    MIN ( 'tbl'[Start Time] ),
    'tbl'[Start Time] > MAX ( 'tbl'[Start Time] ),
    ALLEXCEPT ( 'tbl', 'tbl'[Station ID] )
)

Hi, thanks for the response. 

I am unable to get this to work... would you mind attaching the .pbix file so I can see how you created the VAR?

tks/

Hi,

This DAX should do what you want:

NextStart =
var curvalue = max(NextStart[Start Time])
var station = max(NextStart[Station ID])
return

CALCULATE(Min(NextStart[Start Time]),ALL(NextStart),NextStart[Start Time]>curvalue,NextStart[Station ID]=station)

End result:

The basic logic is to remove filters with ALL and keep the relevant filters with variables. You might need to add SiteID as an variable.

I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!
