get MIN, MAX DATE then count duration in hour

hi all;

 

i have data set, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/159xOcmrKj95YXYOayHmGi9A_K_8ZHIMq/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=10007...

the point is; i already get MIN DATE, and MAX DATE ( with Measurement); but then how to get duration(hour) from that ? i tried using DATEDIFF formula but the result is wrong .

First Started =

CALCULATE (
MIN ( 'Data'[DateStarted] ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Data', Data[DateCreate], Data[worker] )
)

Last Finished =

CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Data'[DateFinished ),
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Data', Data[DateCreate], Data[worker] )
)

duration(hour)= datediff([Last Finished] , [First Started],HOUR)

 

thank you for your help;

Hi @bikgx ,

I have added some workers in the data to cross-check.

1. Create new table as

Table = SUMMARIZE(Sheet1,Sheet1[worker],"firstdate",MIN(Sheet1[DateStarted]),"lastdate",MAX(Sheet1[DateFinished]))
 
2. Create new column as 
hours = DATEDIFF('Table'[firstdate],'Table'[lastdate],HOUR)
 
Output :

Hi @bikgx ,

 

1.

First Started = MIN(Sheet1[DateStarted])
2. 
Last Finished = MAX(Sheet1[DateFinished])
3.
Duration(Hours) = DATEDIFF(Sheet1[First Started],Sheet1[Last Finished],HOUR)
