Hi All,
I am fairly new to power Bi and I want to get the Differnce between two times in the Same Column, as per the below image in excel. Can someone please help me with a formula for this.

Hi @NellF ,
Thanks for your reply, you can try to see if you are using measure instead of column. This might solve your problem.
I have prepared two solutions to the problem:
result_column =
VAR _1 =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Table'[Time at Build Place] ),
FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Index] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Index] ) - 1 )
)
VAR _2 = 'Table'[Time at Build Place] - _1
RETURN
IF ( 'Table'[Index] = 1, BLANK (), _2 )
result_measure =
VAR _1 =
CALCULATE (
MAX ( 'Table'[Time at Build Place] ),
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Table' ),
'Table'[Index]
= SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Index] ) - 1
)
)
VAR _2 =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table'[Time at Build Place] ),
FILTER (
'Table',
'Table'[Time at Build Place] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Time at Build Place] )
)
) - _1
RETURN
IF ( SUM ( 'Table'[Index] ) = 1, BLANK (), _2 )
