Calculated Column required or would a Measure work?
Hi,
I am very close to solving an issue but need some help to get it over the line where I need an extra calculated column that shows me an Adjusted Length of 23 days = (44 - 21) = 23 days
The numbers are calculated as follows:
- 44 days = working days between Actual Start 08/03/2022 - Closed Date 09/05/2022
- Time in Deferral AP 3 = working days between 08/03/2022 (actualstart) - 10/03/2022 (actualend)
- Pseudo Days 3 = working days between 04/03/2022 (Case Received) - 08/03/2022 (actual start)
The figures are correct but I need to create a calculated column in my table that shows the Total Deferral length of this ticket as 44 days only not 88 days when I add this to a visual.
An added problem is that my table doesn't always contain multiple lines per ticket no, so, when its all on one line it's correct, the problem is when I have 2,3,4 lines per ticket.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Furthermore, I have a column in my table called Rank which which Ranks each ticket 1,2,3,4,5 (1 if there's only monthly one ticket and so on) according to the the ActualStart date =
Rank Actual Start
5 03/06/2020
4 06/04/2020
3 30/03/2020
2 19/02/2020
1 17/02/2020
Hi ArchStanton ,
Here are the steps you can follow：
1. Create calculated table.
Table 2 = CALENDAR( DATE(2022,1,1),DATE(2022,12,31 ))Create calculated column. Column = WEEKDAY('Table 2'[Date],2)2. Create measure.
Total Deferral Length = var _mindate= MINX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Ticket No]=MAX('Table'[Ticket No])),[actualstart]) var _maxdate= MaxX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Ticket No]=MAX('Table'[Ticket No])),[Closed Date]) return CALCULATE( COUNT('Table 2'[Column]),FILTER(ALL('Table 2'), 'Table 2'[Date]>_mindate&&'Table 2'[Date]<=_maxdate&&NOT( 'Table 2'[Column] ) in {6,7}))Time in Deferrral Ap = CALCULATE( COUNT('Table 2'[Column]),FILTER(ALL('Table 2'), 'Table 2'[Date]>=MAX('Table'[actualstart])&&'Table 2'[Date]<=MAX('Table'[actualend])&&NOT( 'Table 2'[Column] ) in {6,7}))Time in Deferrral Ap_Measure = var _table1= SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[actualstart],"value",[Time in Deferrral Ap]) return IF( HASONEVALUE('Table'[actualstart]), [Time in Deferrral Ap],SUMX(_table1,[value]))Adjusted Length = [Total Deferral Length] - [Time in Deferrral Ap_Measure]3. Result:

Thank you for sending me this, much appreciated
I tried to create the first measure (Total Deferral Length) but got this error:
Hi ArchStanton ,
In The Measure Total Deferral Length, there is a field in Text format that you can modify to Date.

Yes, that worked, thanks!
This is almost working perfectly but there are just a couple of tweaks needed.
I have my own Date table that uses Working Day = TRUE. I would like to change your references of Weekday column to this instead:
COUNT('Date Dimension' [Is Working Day] = TRUE
Also, in the example provided, the Time in Referral AP Measure of 3 days is the Working Days between the Case Received date (04/03/2022) and actualstart (08/03/2022) = 3 days on the 1st Row
(It just so happens that the Difference between actualstart & actualend is also 3 days, a coincidence)!
and then on the 2nd row its the working days between the actualstart on Row 2 10/03/2022 and actualend on Row 2 11/04/2022 = 18 days
I have asked a separate question about possibly substituting your date table column with my IS WORKING DAY column - hope thats okj? I will accept yours as a solution as well once I've tested it against a few different ticket numbers...
