Getting Running Time (from subtracting Previous row) using DAX

Hello All,

 

I need to get Cumulative Running Time of running pumps using DAX


I have created 3 measures for that,
First for getting Previous row,

Second for subtracting the current row from previous row,

Third to get cumulative runnning time

 

But I am facing a small issue, I have explained my issue below the screenshot

 

Here are the formula for Measures:

 

Prev_value_run_time =
VAR Index = [Index]
VAR Prev_datetime =
    MAXX (
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( FloatTable ),
            FloatTable[Date] = SELECTEDVALUE ( FloatTable[Date] )
                && FloatTable[Time] < SELECTEDVALUE ( FloatTable[Time] )
        ),
        FloatTable[Time]
    )
VAR Prev_date =
    MAXX (
        FILTER (
            ALLSELECTED ( FloatTable ),
            FloatTable[Date] < SELECTEDVALUE ( FloatTable[Date] )
        ),
        FloatTable[Date]
    )
VAR Prev_time =
    MAXX (
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( FloatTable ), FloatTable[Date] = Prev_date ),
        FloatTable[Time]
    )
RETURN
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        NOT ISBLANK ( Prev_datetime ),
            CALCULATE (
                SUMX ( FloatTable, VAR Index = FloatTable[TagIndex] RETURN FloatTable[Time] ),
                FILTER (
                    ALLSELECTED ( FloatTable ),
                    FloatTable[Time] = Prev_datetime
                        && FloatTable[Date] = SELECTEDVALUE ( FloatTable[Date] )
                        && FloatTable[TagIndex] = Index
                )
            ),
        CALCULATE (
            SUMX ( FloatTable, VAR Index = FloatTable[TagIndex] RETURN FloatTable[Time] ),
            FILTER (
                ALLSELECTED ( FloatTable ),
                FloatTable[Time] = Prev_time
                    && FloatTable[Date] = Prev_date
                    && FloatTable[TagIndex] = Index
            )
        )
    )                                        // Here I have included Index column because I need to do group by based on Tag Index
 
run time =
SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE(FloatTable[pump_flag]), 1, [Time Sum] - [Prev_value_run_time])*1440        // [Time sum] is the SUM Time
 
run time1 =
SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE(FloatTable[pump_flag]), 1, CALCULATE( [Run time sum],  FILTER( ALLSELECTED(FloatTable), FloatTable[Time] <= MAX(FloatTable[Time]))))                    // [Run time sum] is the SUM of  measure [run time]

So in the sceenshot you can see that in Time column, Difference between 2 consecutive rows is 10 mins.  In the column run time1 we can see the cumulative running time, it is working fine but at some point of time when Difference b/w 2 consecutinve rows is greater than 10 mins there it is showing incorrect value, I need to fix this.

 

Can anyone help me in this issue?

 

If you've any question feel free to ask.

 

Thanks and Regards
Mihir
