    HI rocky09,

     

    You can try to use below calculated column formula to calculate valid working hour:

     

    Work Hour = 
VAR filtered =
    FILTER (
        ADDCOLUMNS (
            CROSSJOIN (
                CALENDAR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE], [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ),
                SELECTCOLUMNS ( GENERATESERIES ( 9, 18 ), "Hour", [Value] )
            ),
            "Day of week", WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 )
        ),
        [Day of week] < 6
            && [TicketID] = EARLIER ( Table1[TicketID] )
    )
VAR hourcount =
    COUNTROWS (
        FILTER (
            filtered,
            (
                [Date] >= DATEVALUE ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] )
                    && [Hour]
                        > HOUR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ) + 1
            )
                && (
                    [Date] <= DATEVALUE ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] )
                        && [Hour]
                            > HOUR ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ) - 1
                )
        )
    )
VAR remained =
    DATEDIFF (
        TIMEVALUE ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ),
        TIME ( HOUR ( [ACTIVITY_DATE] ) + 1, 0, 0 ),
        MINUTE
    )
        + DATEDIFF (
            TIME ( HOUR ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ) - 1, 0, 0 ),
            TIMEVALUE ( [LASTMODIFIEDDATE] ),
            MINUTE
        )
RETURN
    IF ( hourcount <> BLANK (), (hourcount*60 + remained)/60, 0 )

Thank you so much sir.

 

I am getting the below error.

 

The Start date in Calendar function can not be later thanthe end date.

 

I guess, the first column may have greater date than modified date. Is there a way to dealth it

    actually, i found the reason,

     

    My Date is changing once loading to data model. Actually, the time is early monring. Is it possible to prevent?

    example: from 01-12-2017 01:50 to 01-12-2017 PM 01:50

    Hi rocky09,

     

    >>I guess, the first column may have greater date than modified date. Is there a way to dealth it

    It means your table contains records which start date greater than end date. Datediff function not support calculated with records who have greater startdate(compare with end date).

     

    You can add some conditions to ignore calculation when 'start date' greater than 'end date'.

     

    Notice: DATEDIFF(start date, end date, unit)

      Hi, 

       

      I tried the formula above and I get the error message "The start date or end date in Calendar function can not be Blank value". Any way to resolve this?

       

      Thanks

      Hi Anonymous I got a question for you:

       

      I have 2 issues when I use your solution.

       

      1. Error because those fields in calendar can not be blank.

      2. Error because sometimes the lastdate is previous to firstdate.

       

      Can you PLEASE give me some solution? I know those are conditions I have to add in the same code you put. But I don't know where to make it work.

       

      Thanks man! I hope you to be fine.
