    Hi stsdrillingeng3 possible solution is calculated column as below. Adjust Sheet1 to your table name.

    This solution assumes that column ID is unique value to identify row for end date.

     

    Offset formula =
    VAR __current_id=Sheet1[id]
    RETURN  
    CALCULATE(
        MAX(Sheet1[end_date]),
        FILTER(Sheet1,
        Sheet1[id]=__current_id-1)
    )
     
    Output

    Did I answer correctly? Kudos appreciate / accept solution.

    Yeas it works perfectly thanks a lot ! I tried using the offset formula but yours is so much more easier and comprehensible.
