Create column with first occuring value in existing column

Hi!

 

I have a issue that i can not resolve and having a hard time finding a matching solution. Im new to dax and powerbi but will give it a try to formulate what the issue is

 

I have multiple cars and mutiple manufacturers from which the cars picks up goods, each pickup generates data in the form of a row in my dataset. Each car can pickup goods from different manufacturers at different times of the day, these get logged as a pickup from each respective manufacturer but what i want to do is create a manipulated column for all rows containing just the first manufacturer for each car and day.

Would appreciate the help

Regards

Hi, thank you for your reply.

 

It might be that i am to much of a rookie to understand how that is going to solve the problem as i need to use the "manipulated" column to create a new measure of number of deliveries made by each car for every given day but visualized depending on which manufacturer the first pickup was made from

 

Regards

Just to clarify, the "car" column contains a cars unique identification number
