Hi All,
This is my first post here. I have been looking for a solution to my problem for a while now.
But couldn't found it yet. So here's is my problem
I have a dataset with orders and tasks on the order, see below
Order | Tasknumber | Department | Creation date |
16928134 | mv01 | mv | 18-4-2019 |
16928134 | mv02 | mv | 18-4-2019 |
16928134 | mv03 | mv | 15-5-2019 |
16928134 | mv04 | mv | 15-5-2019 |
16928139 | mv01 | mv | 20-1-2020 |
16928139 | mv02 | mv | 20-1-2020 |
16928139 | mv03 | mv | 13-2-2020 |
16928139 | mv04 | mv | 19-2-2020 |

16928142 | mv01 | mv | 6-5-2019 |
16928142 | mv02 | mv | 6-5-2019 |
16928142 | mv03 | mv | 8-11-2020 |
16928142 | mv04 | mv | 20-11-2020 |
16928142 | mv05 | mv | 20-11-2020 |
16928149 | mv01 | mv | 21-1-2020 |

I want to have the difference per order from the first mv (department) task. ( I have even more departments, but if someone has the answer for this one already it would really help!)
See below example, for what I am looking for, column "Difference".
Order | Tasknumber | Department | Creation date | Difference |
16928134 | mv01 | mv | 18-4-2019 | 0 |
16928134 | mv02 | mv | 18-4-2019 | 0 |
16928134 | mv03 | mv | 15-5-2019 | 27 |

Hope you understand my question and hopefully someone can help me.

Hi, @Anonymous
According to your description, you can create a measure to calculate the desired result.
Like this:
Measure =
VAR a =
MINX (
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Table' ),
[Department] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Department] )
&& [Order] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Order] )
),
[Creation date]
)
RETURN
( DATEDIFF ( a, SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Creation date] ), DAY ) )
If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.
