Hi All,
How do I write a DAX formula to calculate the date difference between two columns. The calculate column should be name OnTime and if true should be Y, if not, N.
The difference should be in minutes. There's a fix target value which is 30 minutes divided by 1440 (number of minutes in a day)
See the formula in excel below
=IF(ISBLANK(F5),"",IF(ABS((F5-E5)<(Targets!$E$4/1440)),"Y","N"))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Ykankam ,
You can create a calculated column as below to get it, please find the details in the attachment.
On-Time? =
VAR _target =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Target'[Target] ),
FILTER ( 'Target', 'Target'[Product] = 'Actual'[Product] )
)
RETURN
IF (
ISBLANK ( 'Actual'[Actual] ),
BLANK (),
IF (
DIVIDE ( ABS ( DATEDIFF ( 'Actual'[Plan], 'Actual'[Actual], MINUTE ) ), 1440 )
< DIVIDE ( _target, 1440 ),
"Y",
"N"
)
)
Best Regards
