Hi all,
I'm trying to create two new calculated columns/measures (Start Date & End date) from a project table. Where I need to filter data based on the task, if task="Start" then it is start date and if task="Ship" then end date. I have data shown below.
Project | Task | Date |
Project A | Start | 27-Jan-22 |
Project A | Definition | 30-Sep-22 |
Project A | Development | 1-Jan-24 |
Project A | Testing | 1-Feb-25 |
Project A | Ship | 1-Jun-25 |
Project A | Quality | 1-Feb-26 |
Project B | Start | 2-Jan-22 |
Project B | Definition | 20-Sep-22 |
Project B | Development | 20-Jan-24 |
Project B | Testing | 15-Feb-25 |
Project B | Ship | 16-Jun-25 |
Project B | Quality | 17-Feb-26 |
Project B | Qualification | 10-Mar-26 |
And I want to have results like that:
Project | Start Date | End date |
Project A | 27-Jan-22 | 1-Jun-25 |
Project B | 2-Jan-22 | 16-Jun-25 |
My end goal is to see the percentage of project completion.
Can you please help me here? I'm new to PBI.
Thanks.
Regards,
Mian

Hi @zenisekd ,
I have another table where most of the information related to the projects is available, and each row (line) represents one project. I can add the start and end dates there too.
End goal is to create % of project completion and show it in a table with other project details.
For end date change "Start" in the formula to "Ship".
Thank you for your quick response. This is the right solution I was looking for.
Is it new columns that you want
or
a summarizing new table, where each project represents one line, as you showed in the picture
or
you have two tables - one with projects and second where the projects have their tasks and your goal is to add to the project table two new columns based on the second (task) table?
