Date difference between dates in same column
- 5 years ago
Hi Greg_Deckler
i have used a slightly different formula, but your pattern works well:
Difference = VAR _CurrentDate = 'Table'[Extra_Fields.Log_MS_Date_Started] VAR _PreviousDate = MAXX( FILTER( 'Table', 'Table'[Extra_Fields.Log_MS_Date_Started] < EARLIER('Table'[Extra_Fields.Log_MS_Date_Started]) ), 'Table'[Extra_Fields.Log_MS_Date_Started] ) RETURN IF(_PreviousDate = BLANK(), 0, _CurrentDate - _PreviousDate)With kind regards from the town where the legend of the 'Pied Piper of Hamelin' is at home

cpereyra - If I had to guess, you are probably not including all of the filtering criteria that you need to. Like whatever that field is just to the left of your date field. Your filter criteria needs to include all of the row columns that you want to "group" together.
So, like:
FILTER( 'Table', [Column] = EARLIER([Column]) && [Column1] = EARLIER([Column1]) )

It looks like with this formula is picking up the day before rather than the previous date.

Again,
