Thank you @VahidDM for your prompt reply.
Hi @NewbieJono ,
Depending on the information you have provided, you can add a new measure:
NEW Difference =
VAR _Totalswtiches =
SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Total_switches] )
VAR _MOVEAVERAGE =
MAXX (
FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), [Total_switches] < _Totalswtiches ),
[NEW Average]
)
RETURN
IF ( _Totalswtiches = 0, 0, SUM ( 'Table'[NEW Average] ) - _MOVEAVERAGE )

Hi @NewbieJono
Create a measure using this DAX Expression:
Difference =
VAR _L =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[Calendar Days] ),
'Table'[Col Numbe]
= ( MAX ( 'Table'[Col Numbe] ) - 1 )
)
RETURN
SUM ( 'Table'[Calendar Days] ) - _L
Output:
