Hi Greg, thanks for you reply. Unfortunately, the measure provided is not working with Power Bi as it can't load any values and it stuck "working on it" for long periods of time.
Also, I forgot to add that the time difference calculation (with no overlap) needs to be done for each distinct value for column 3 (as above)

AverageBiUser Well, it is an EXTREMELY expensive operation to do it the way that I was forced to do it. No argument there. But that was the only way I could get the correct results when I put that measure together. It's not a trivial problem.

Hi Greg, after implementing the column, the values for each record are returning 1 distinct value that is wrong. Do you know how I would rectify the issue?
