Calculate duration between joined table

Hi all,

 

I have 3 tables :

 

Case

- create_date

 

Action

- create_date

 

and the join table

 

Case_join

- action_id

- case_id

 

Case and Action have a one to many relationship.

 

I am trying to calculate the duration between Case[create_date] and the first Action[create_date] associated to the case.

 

I tried to add a new column in the join table and use a DAX query but I didn't manage to get it right.

 

Any hints ?

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous

Create measures in Table "Case"

Measure to return the first Action[create_date] associated to each case

min per case = CALCULATE(MIN('Action'[Date]),ALLEXCEPT(Case_Action,Case_Action[K_Case]))

Measure to calculate the duration between Case[create_date] and the first Action[create_date] associated to the case

Take this formula for example

the first Action[create_date] - Case[create_date]  per row

duration_day = DATEDIFF(MAX('Case'[Date]),[min per case],DAY)

duration_hours = DATEDIFF(MAX('Case'[Date]),[min per case],HOUR)

My current DAX request is the following :

 

CALCULATE (
CALCULATE (
MIN ( 'Action'[D_CREATE] );
FILTER ( 'Action'; 'Action'[D_CREATE] = MIN ( 'Action'[D_CREATE] ) )
)
)
 
The problem is it only return the first Action created in the table, and not for every row the first action.
