Dump time difference between 2 shifts

Hello,

 

I hope you can help as i am battling to find away to calculate the time difference beween 2 dumps over 2 shifts.

I will explain:

 

I need a calculation that takes the latest time of shift 1 "Dump_End_Timestamp" and the earliest time of shift 2 "Dump_End_Timestamp" to give me its difference in Minutes. Keeping in mind by selecting the dump location.

 

Is this possible?

@Freeseman,

 

Try this measure:

 

Minutes Diff = 
VAR vLastDumpShift1 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( ShiftData[DUMP_END_TIMESTAMP] ),
        ShiftData[DUMP_END_SHIFT_IDENT] = 1
    )
VAR vFirstDumpShift2 =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( ShiftData[DUMP_END_TIMESTAMP] ),
        ShiftData[DUMP_END_SHIFT_IDENT] = 2
    )
VAR vResult =
    DATEDIFF ( vLastDumpShift1, vFirstDumpShift2, MINUTE )
RETURN
    vResult

solved it by changing my shift ident to whole number.

@Freeseman,

 

Try this measure:

 

Minutes Diff = 
VAR vLastDumpShift1 =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( ShiftData[DUMP_END_TIMESTAMP] ),
        ShiftData[DUMP_END_SHIFT_IDENT] = 1
    )
VAR vFirstDumpShift2 =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( ShiftData[DUMP_END_TIMESTAMP] ),
        ShiftData[DUMP_END_SHIFT_IDENT] = 2
    )
VAR vResult =
    DATEDIFF ( vLastDumpShift1, vFirstDumpShift2, MINUTE )
RETURN
    vResult

@DataInsights 

Thank you.

 

This looks like it could be the answer. I however get this message:

Any idea how i should format the date to be able to do the calculation?
