Create a column to get values from other column but from 2nd row

[pranays2]

Hi,

I want to create a new column (B) where the values should be from already existing column (A) but in the new column (B) i want the values to start from 2nd row of col (A).

 

Kindly let me know if there is any formula or DAX to do this

Hi @pranays2 ,

I created a sample pbix file(see the attachment), please check if that is what you want.

1. Add one index column in Power Query Editor

2. Create a calculated column as below to get it

Column B = 
VAR _nextindex =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] > EARLIER ( 'Table'[Index] ) )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Column A] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] = _nextindex )
    ) + 0

In addition, you can refer the following links to get it.

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

Hi @pranays2 ,

I updated my sample pbix file(see the attachment) with creating a measure, please check if that is what you want.

Measure = 
VAR _selindex =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Index] )
VAR _selcolumnA =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Column A] )
VAR _nextindex =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( 'Table'[Index] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Index] > _selindex )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Column A] ),
        FILTER ( ALLSELECTED ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Index] = _nextindex )
    ) + 0

Best Regards
