    Hi, I'm trying to do something similar but I would exclude orders that have a "0" value (sample orders) and then get the second order date.
    I tried the following:

     

    First Order Date = CALCULATE(FIRSTDATE('Orders'[Document Date]),ALLEXCEPT('Orders','Orders'[Customer Code]),'Orders'[Revenue]<>0)

     

     

    But that is just not showing the first date for customers that have orders = 0, but what I would like to have is the first date of a <>0 order (which in that case would be the second order date).

     

     

    Any ideas how I can get that date?

     

    Thank you

      Never mind, that calculated column that I mentioned is working fine :)

      thanks!
