Trying to create a calulated table that summarizes the dates by incidentID but keeping getting error of duplicate dates passed to FIRSTDATE even when I use the DISTINCT Function on those dates. Not sure what is causing it as I can't debug the DAX statement at all
Solved! Go to Solution.
Resolved my issue through another route. Made arelationship bi-directional and then used the FIRSTNONBLANK function to grab the acknowledge date. Then mapped the AcknowledgeDate, MitigatedDate, and ResolvedDate to my table with a single status per incident.
Here is the DAX expression I used. Admittedly I'm still a novice at using DAX expressions so I may still not be doing the most efficent method but it's working.
AcknowledgeDate1 = FIRSTNONBLANK('ArgusDevTeam ICM (All Status Changes)'[AcknowledgeDate], [AcknowledgeDate])
I have tested it on my local environment, we cannot reproduce this issue.
Table = ADDCOLUMNS(SUMMARIZE(Table1,Table1[Type]),"FirstDate",FIRSTDATE(DISTINCT(Table1[Date])))
Please provide us some sample data, so that we can try to reproduce this issue and make further analysis.

Charlie Liao
