DAX to get column value corresponding to first non blank date

Hi Community,

Following is my sample dataset. 'Firstnonblank Servicedate' is a calculated column that gets the first or the earliest date. I would like to know how can I create a calculated column 'Service Type of Firstnonblank Servicedate'?

@Anonymous , Try new column like

minx(filter(Table, Table[Service Date] = earlier([Firstnonblank Servicedate])),[Service Type])
or
minx(filter(Table, Table[Service Date] = earlier([Firstnonblank Servicedate])),earlier([Service Type]))
