Create a transitioning table between two selected dates

Hello, 

 

I would like to track movements in statuses from our cases.

So therefore I would like to create a status transitioning table between two selected dates. 

 

I have a dataset with among which three colums:

Date

Case ID

Status

 

We have >10.000 Cases and ~10 statuses.

 

I would like to create an output like this

 

Table           Status1                Status2            Status3       ...

Status1           A                         B                       C

Status2           D                         E                       F

Status3            G                         H                     I

...

 

Where A is the number of cases that were in Status1 at the first selected date and at status1 at the second selected date.

Where F is the number of cases that were in Status2 at the first selected date and at status3 at the second selected date.

Where G is the number of cases that were in Status3 at the first selected date and at status1 at the second selected date.

So cases can go forwards and backwards.

 

I have looked everywhere to create this.

 

Can you help me?

 

Thanks you very much!

Hi @MattJacob ,

 

I suggest you to create unrelated dimtables to help your calculation.

vrzhoumsft_0-1693898133302.png

The relationship between these tables are all inactive.

Measure:

Count =
VAR _GEN1 =
    GENERATE ( 'Status(Row)', 'Status(Column)' )
VAR _GEN2 =
    GENERATE ( _GEN1, VALUES ( 'Table'[Case ID] ) )
VAR _SELECT1 =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( DimDate1[Date] )
VAR _SELECT2 =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( DimDate2[Date] )
VAR _ADDFlag =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        _GEN2,
        "Flag",
            VAR _1 =
                CALCULATE (
                    MAX ( 'Table'[Status] ),
                    FILTER (
                        'Table',
                        'Table'[Case ID] = EARLIER ( [Case ID] )
                            && 'Table'[Date] = _SELECT1
                    )
                )
            VAR _2 =
                CALCULATE (
                    MAX ( 'Table'[Status] ),
                    FILTER (
                        'Table',
                        'Table'[Case ID] = EARLIER ( [Case ID] )
                            && 'Table'[Date] = _SELECT2
                    )
                )
            RETURN
                IF ( [Status(Row)] = _1 && [Status(Column)] = _2, 1, 0 )
    )
VAR _FILTER =
    FILTER ( _ADDFlag, [Flag] = 1 )
VAR _SUMX =
    ADDCOLUMNS (
        _GEN1,
        "Sumx",
            SUMX (
                FILTER (
                    _FILTER,
                    [Status(Row)] = EARLIER ( [Status(Row)] )
                        && [Status(Column)] = EARLIER ( [Status(Column)] )
                ),
                [Flag]
            )
    )
RETURN
    SUMX ( _SUMX, [Sumx] )

Result is as below.

If this is coming from SFDC data then it will be much easier to use the field history object for the case object. It records all these transitions automatically.
