Help calculating change between hours and/or minutes

[pabeader]

I need to calculate the change in a value between hours, minutes and between entries.  Similar to how you can do between days or months.

I have no idea how to start or even if it's possible.  

Data is inventory level taken at 5 minute intervals.  

I suspect that Power BI can't do this.  Nothing in DAX for minutes or hours.  Not sure about M.  Might be something in there.

Data:

Material	Inventory	TimeStamp
18	13	4/6/22 3:44:07 PM
18	15	4/6/22 3:45:56 PM
18	12	4/6/22 3:50:00 PM
18	10	4/6/22 3:55:01 PM
18	13	4/6/22 4:10:00 PM
21	5	4/6/22 3:44:07 PM
21	9	4/6/22 3:45:56 PM
21	8	4/6/22 3:50:00 PM
21	4	4/6/22 3:55:01 PM
21	5	4/6/22 4:10:00 PM
26	5	4/6/22 3:44:07 PM
26	3	4/6/22 3:45:56 PM
26	9	4/6/22 3:50:00 PM
26	8	4/6/22 3:55:01 PM
26	2	4/6/22 4:10:00 PM

Output:

Material	Per Entry	Per Hour
18	null
18	2
18	-3
18	-2	-3
18	3	3
21	null
21	4
21	-1
21	-4	-1
21	1	1
26	null
26	-2
26	6
26	-1	3
26	-6	-6

Hi @pabeader ,

You can refer the following links to get it by DAX or Power Query Editor...

Calculating day/time difference

Handle in Power Query Editor

Get the changes by DAX

Power bi Date Difference – 8 Different Examples

Dynamically Compute Different Time Duration in Power BI Using DAX

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.

Hi @pabeader 

Can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not enough information to go on;

please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly:

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
4. Relation between your tables

Appreciate your Kudos!!

If data is needed then I'm not doing a good enough job explaing the need or the reader isn't going to be able to answer the request.
