    Hi, Anonymous 

     

    Based on your description, I created data to reproduce your scenario. The pbix file is attached in the end.

    Table:

     

    You may create a calculated column as below.

    End Date = 
CALCULATE(
    MIN('Table'[DateTime]),
    FILTER(
        ALL('Table'),
        'Table'[Person]=EARLIER('Table'[Person])&&
        'Table'[Phase]=EARLIER('Table'[Phase])&&
        'Table'[Status]="Complete"&&
        'Table'[DateTime]>=EARLIER('Table'[DateTime])
    )
)

     

    Result:

     

    Best Regards
