Good morning,
I have a table with a column titled Status Audit Type. Two of the values in this column are Create and Done and each has a corresponding date/time in another column Titled Status Changed At.
I am needing to find the turn around time from when a message was created and when it was completed (done).
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Melissa
a measure
sumx( Values(Table[message ID]), calculate(datediff(minx(filter(Table, Table[Status Audit Type] ="Create"), Table[Status Changed at]), maxx(filter(Table, Table[Status Audit Type] ="Done"), Table[Status Changed at]), hour)))
For column consider earlier

Thank you amitchandak. Should the result come out in hours then? Minutes? A numerical value for date/time?
@MBWATSON , datediff you can get in hour, minute, second , day
if you need get time, simply date diff two, but that will not sum
You can try like
time(0,0,0) + sumx( Values(Table[message ID]), calculate(datediff(minx(filter(Table, Table[Status Audit Type] ="Create"), Table[Status Changed at]), maxx(filter(Table, Table[Status Audit Type] ="Done"), Table[Status Changed at]), hour)))/24
Throwing this back out there 🙂
The suggested formula for the measure did not work. Here is an example
This particular message took almost a year to complete. Yet here is the cycle time using the formula shown in hh:mm format
Any other suggestions @amitchandak or anyone else?
Maybe I should clarify, I am looking for the amount of time it took to complete the work, from the create time to the done time. When I try the second formula I get an error message.
I found the error so that isn't an issue. The formula returns a date and time. What I need is for it to return HH:MM
@amitchandak I was able to get this to show a time but they aren't correct. I have a Create date/time of 4/19/2022 8:20:09 and a Done date/time of 10/31/22 6:17:17 that doesn't even show in the Matrix. Some with similar dates/times showing in the Matrix as 7 hours. Any other suggestions?
