Calculate Duration

Hi There,

 

I’m pretty new in Power Bi and I’m trying to calculate the duration and days from a single start time.

For example the start time is: 11-5-2017 09:48:56

Finally I would like to get a table like this.

Mtime

PowerW

Duration

Days

11-5-2017 09:48:55

2300

-00:00:01

I hope someone can explain me how to make this.

Hi @JeroenItho,

 

Try to add two columns:

 

Time = MIN('Start'[StartTime])-'Power'[Mtime]

Format this as a time measure

days =
IF (
    MIN ( 'Start'[StartTime] ) > 'Power'[Mtime],
    0,
    DATEDIFF ( MIN ( 'Start'[StartTime] ), 'Power'[Mtime], DAY ) + 1
)

This should work.
