Create column based on other columns

Hi,

 

I have following table and would like to recreate res column.

 

idtimevalres
A11212
A2912
A31512
B12424
B22224
B327

24

 

 

res column whould value from val column which equals minimum time column. What is easiest way to achieve this? This should be done for each id as a group.

If Min time can be other than 1, then this column

 

Res =
VAR Mintime =
    CALCULATE ( MIN ( TableName[time] ), ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[id] ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( TableName[val] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[id] ), TableName[time] = Mintime )
    )

If Min time is always 1, then you can use

 

Res =
CALCULATE (
    MIN ( TableName[val] ),
    FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[id] ), TableName[time] = 1 )
)

Thanks. What about if Val column is text? What can be used instead of minimum to get that text to new column. This is just extra but would like to know.

Hi

You can also use
Selectedvalue or Values

Res =
VAR Mintime =
    CALCULATE ( MIN ( TableName[time] ), ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[id] ) )
RETURN

        MIN ( TableName[val] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( TableName, TableName[id] ), TableName[time] = Mintime )
    )
