First Offer Employee
Hi all,
I can't solve the following Problem: I have a table with all document position (orders, offers, invoices etc), called BI_Positionen_Doc. It is constructed as following:
| Article | Documenttype | DocumentNo | Position | Salesman | DocDate |
| xyz | offer | 102 | 1 | Georg | 05.01.2022 |
| abc | offer | 102 | 2 | Georg | 05.01.2022 |
| xyz | order | 500 | 1 | Mark | 10.01.2022 |
I want to add a new column that states for each line the first offer Date and the Employee who did the first offer. Aim is to get the first employee who offered the article.
So adding to the table above f.e.:
| FirstOfferDate | FirstOfferEmployee |
| 05.01.2022 | Georg |
| 05.01.2022 | Georg |
| 05.01.2022 | Georg |
The date I could solve with this:
But I can't solve how to get the first employee?
Could you help me please?
Thanks and best regards
Eileen

Does it have to be DAX or can this be done in Power Query?
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WqqisUtJRyk9LSy0C0oYGRiASiN1T84vSgbSBqZ6BoZ6RgZGRUqxOtFJiUjKGciPcyqGmF6WAlZsaGEBN900sygbrR6iOBQA=", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Article = _t, Documenttype = _t, DocumentNo = _t, Position = _t, Salesperson = _t, DocDate = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Article", type text}, {"Documenttype", type text}, {"DocumentNo", Int64.Type}, {"Position", Int64.Type}, {"Salesperson", type text}, {"DocDate", type date}},"de"), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "FirstOfferDate", (k)=> Table.Sort(Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",each [Article]=k[Article] and [Documenttype]="offer"),{{"DocDate", Order.Ascending}}){0}[DocDate],type date), #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "FirstOfferEmployee",(k)=> Table.Sort(Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type",each [Article]=k[Article] and [Documenttype]="offer"),{{"DocDate", Order.Ascending}}){0}[Salesperson],type text) in #"Added Custom1"How to use this code: Create a new Blank Query.

Hi Power Query would be also fine. But the code you gave me just gives me the example I posted here as a table? This was only an example...my table BI_Position_Doc has loads of data. I don't know how this formula can help me...
Thanks!
- lbendlinSuper UserModify the Source= step to point to your table instead.
