How to create a schedule start and end date for task list when there are parallel tasks ?

I have a Sharepoint list with the below format:

Task IDTask descriptionResourceDays requiredStart DateProjected completion
1Task 1A102023-01-05 (example)CALCULATED
2Task 2B202023-01-02 (example)CALCULATED
3Task 3A30CALCULATEDCALCULATED
4Task 4B40CALCULATEDCALCULATED
5Task 5Unassigned10CALCULATEDCALCULATED

 

This is not a major project but individual service requests which are independent of each other. Each resource has only 5 hours per day to work. 

 

Based on this, I want to auto populate the start and end date of the following tasks.  I am stuck at how do I calculate the start and end dates for the tasks that are unassigned? In this case what could be a better approximation to show the completion schedule of all pending tasks that are unassigned

 

I am new to power BI and still learning DAX . Any help would be appreciated

Hi @Poova ,

I have created a simple sample, please refer to my pbix file to see if it helps you.

Create columns.

startdate = MAXX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Resource]=EARLIER('Table'[Resource])),'Table'[Start Date])
projectcompletion = var _1= 'Table'[startdate]+'Table'[Days required]
return
IF('Table'[Start Date]=BLANK()&&'Table'[startdate]=BLANK(),BLANK(),_1)
