Translate Qlik aggr expression to DAX?

Hello

 

Is it possible to translate below expression to DAX or is there another way of achieving the outcome in PBI? I want to translate a table from Qlik into a matrix visual but i cant figure out how to get the aggr equivalent.

 

timestamp(
min({<ColumnX -= {0}>}aggr(
min({<ColumnX -= {0}>} ColumnN,', ')
,ColumnZ,ColumnY, ColumnX))
)

Thanks for the quick reply, but i dont fully understand how this will aggregate over several columns? I only see Column1 = ColumnX and Column2 = ColumnN.

The Qlik aggr function, aggregates a field by a set of fields, I will try to translate into natural language your measure but it's better to provide a expected result to be more accurate 

 

timestamp(           -- format into time stamp
min(                      -- get the minimum value of .. 

{<ColumnX -= {0}>} -- set analysis to filter out ColumnX = 0,

 

aggr(
min({<ColumnX -= {0}>} ColumnN,', ')
,ColumnZ,ColumnY, ColumnX)) -- we get field ColumnN, where row of ColumnX = 0 are filtered out aggregated by ColumnZ,ColumnY, ColumnX
)

 

if I try to translate into dax these components : 

 

 

AggMinValueMeasure = 

VAR AggrMin = SUMMARIZE (
ADDCOLUMNS(
	CALCULATETABLE (
SUMMARIZE (
'Table',
'Table'[Column1],
'Table'[Column2]
),
'Table'[Column1] <> 0
)
,
	"Column1-1", 'Table'[Column1],
	"Column2-2",'Table'[Column2]
),
	"_Min", Min('Table'[Column2])
)

Return AggrMin

 

 

And then format the measure into timestamp in the graphical UI.

Hope this helps.
