    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You can use VAR to improve preformance.

    Previous SMR =
VAR _t =
    TOPN (
        1,
        FILTER (
            DailyProduction,
            DailyProduction[EIID] = EARLIER ( DailyProduction[EIID] )
                && DailyProduction[SMR] < EARLIER ( DailyProduction[SMR] )
        ),
        [Date], DESC
    )
RETURN
    MAXX ( _t, [SMR] )

Just to expand, I woudl essentally want the 6911 to rather be the result of the 16298-16294. Then the 2nd line would need to subtract 16294 from the lowest in the shift which would be 16293.

 

Would it be easier to use a function that sorts the data before calculating?

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Don't quite understand your explanation. Can you give simple data and include the expected output values? It is best to share it in a tabular format.

     

    Or you can try this expression:

    Column =
VAR _last =
    TOPN (
        1,
        FILTER (
            'Table',
            [EIID] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[EIID] )
                && [date&shift] < EARLIER ( 'Table'[date&shift] )
        ),
        [date&shift], DESC
    )
RETURN
    IF ( COUNTROWS ( _last ) > 0, [Shift] - MAXX ( _last, [Shift] ) )

     

    Result:

    Pbix in the end you can refer.

      Hi, that formula doesn't seem to be working, it just generates "-1" in all the columns.
       
      I have managed to come up with a formula that works. The only issue is that that data set is over 1m lines, and processing this column takes almost all my memory and 10 minutes to run.
       
      Previous SMR =
      var _EIID = DailyProduction[EIID]
      var _SMR = DailyProduction[SMR]
      return
      CALCULATE(
      MAX(DailyProduction[SMR]),
      TOPN(1, FILTER(DailyProduction, DailyProduction[EIID] = _EIID && DailyProduction[SMR]<_SMR), DailyProduction[Date], DESC)
      )
