DAX for If with Filter

Hello

 

I am trying to create a calculated column that returns a yes or no based on the following conditions.

 

The max value in column A (LP Actuals'[Last Quantity Entered in past 15 days]) is 1 and also max value in column B ([Last Hours Entered in past 15 days]) is also 1 for that particular job id.

 

The dataset is a little complicated in the sense that on any particular row, we will not have value for column a and b at the same time. So essentially we need to go through all rows for that particular job and if there is a max value of 1 in column A and max value of 1 in column B, then it must return yes else no

 

IF(MAX('LP Actuals','LP Actuals'[Last Quantity Entered in past 15 days]=1 && MAX('LP Actuals','LP Actuals'[Last Hours Entered in past 15 days]=1) && 'LP Actuals'[Job Code]=EARLIER('LP Actuals'[Job Code]),"yes","no"))))

Need Help

    Hi svishwanathan

     

    I think this might be closer (and maybe easier to read)

     

    New Ccolumn = 
VAR Col1 = CALCULATE(MAX('LP Actuals'[Last Quantity Entered in past 15 days]),'LP Actuals'[Job Code] = EARLIER('LP Actuals'[Job Code]))
VAR Col2 = CALCULATE(MAX('LP Actuals'[Last Hours Entered in past 15 days]),'LP Actuals'[Job Code] = EARLIER('LP Actuals'[Job Code]))
RETURN IF(
        Col1=1 && Col2=1 , 
        --THEN--
        "Yes",
        --ELSE--
        "No"
        )

        Thanks for your help. I am experiencing an unusal situation. If I add any calculated column, after the one you helped me to create it says A circular dependency was detected

         

        Can you make a guess on what might be happening
