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"))))
Solved! Go to Solution.
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 Phil
Works well

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
