Create column based on Time value in another column

[hllary]

I am trying to create a visual that will so how many items were inspected during a certain time period.

I'm thinking the easiest way to do this is create another column that will have TimeName, then I can create a visual that will count the TimeName during a day.  How do I create the column based on the records time being between two other times?  Or is there a better way of doing this. A sample of the time is below.

Hi  @hllary ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create calculated column.

Flag =
CALCULATE(MIN('Table'[TimeName]),filter('Table',[start]<=earlier('Table2'[date_insp_time]) &&[end]>= earlier('Table2'[date_insp_time])))

New Column =
var _count=
COUNTX(FILTER( ALL('Table2'),'Table2'[Flag]=EARLIER('Table2'[Flag])),[Flag])
return
[Flag] &" "&_count&" Project"

2. Result:

Time Table

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WCjFQ0lEytjIwACIgywzKitUBShkiCegoWSBLGSEJ6CgZGiDLGSOLAJlGVsYISRNkESDTBCYZCwA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Time Key" = _t, Start = _t, End = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Time Key", type text}, {"Start", type time}, {"End", type time}})
in
    #"Changed Type"

Time Data

let
    Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjSyMjKwMjBQitUBcoyROGZWhqZwCQMrY4QqEysjiEwsAA==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Time = _t]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Time", type time}}),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Add Time Key", (x) => Table.SelectRows(#"Time Table", each x[Time] >= [Start] and  x[Time] < [End] ){0}[Time Key] , type text)
in
    #"Added Custom"

@hllary 

you can try to create a column

maxx(filter(table1,start<=DATE_INSP_Time&&end>=DATE_INSP_Time),TimeName)

Hi @hllary  - I have created the following PBIX example to show how you can use Power Query syntax to find the Time Band.  Sample File   .  Please note the range removes the +1 second from the time ranges.

Thanks for you help!  This project is for work and they have an older version of power bi.  Please post the the code to the power query.  thanks
