First & Second Instances has to be counted based on multiple conditions

[Anonymous]

Dear All,

I have a devices related data, and in that need to find the First & Seconds instances of Support Start. I tried many ways and searched on the net for solution but couldn't find the answer.

First Instance = 

        COUNTROWS ( 
        FILTER (
            Sheet1,
            Sheet1[IPAM_Code] = EARLIER(Sheet1[IPAM_Code]) &&
            Sheet1[Network_Function] = EARLIER(Sheet1[Network_Function]) &&
            Sheet1[Hostname] = EARLIER(Sheet1[Hostname]) &&
            Sheet1[Site_Metal_Rating] = EARLIER(Sheet1[Site_Metal_Rating]) &&
            Sheet1[Serial] = EARLIER(Sheet1[Serial]) &&
            Sheet1[Start of Support].[Date] = EARLIER ( Sheet1[Start of Support].[Date] )
        )
    ) = 1

First Instance = 
IF (
    Sheet1[Start of Support]
        = MINX (
            FILTER (
                Sheet1,
                EARLIER ( Sheet1[Network_Function] ) = "Access Switch"
                    && Sheet1[IPAM_Code] = EARLIER ( Sheet1[IPAM_Code] )
            ),
            Sheet1[Start of Support]
        ),
    1
)

In first DAX formula, it is giving True for all the instances, however, in 2nd DAX, all Access Switch devices are not been included, not sure why.

Kindly have a look at the data, I have to include all the columns which may be more as this is sample data because filter can be applied. IPAM Code is the Unique Field by which First & Second instance is required.

Please help me in this as stuck from whole 1 day now and has to deliver the report by EOD today.

Hi, @Anonymous 

I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but please check the below picture and the sample pbix file's link down below for creating measures.

Instance Rank Measure =
RANKX (
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[IPAM_Code] ),
CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Start of Support] ) ),
,
DESC
)

First Instance Measure =

VAR instancerank = [Instance Rank Measure]

VAR currentipamcode =

MAX ( 'Table'[IPAM_Code] )

VAR Firstinstance =

MAXX (

ADDCOLUMNS (

FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[IPAM_Code] = currentipamcode ),

"@rank", [Instance Rank Measure]

),

[@rank]

)

RETURN

IF ( instancerank = Firstinstance, 1 )

Second Instance Measure =

VAR instancerank = [Instance Rank Measure]

VAR currentipamcode =

MAX ( 'Table'[IPAM_Code] )

VAR Firstinstance =

MAXX (

ADDCOLUMNS (

FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[IPAM_Code] = currentipamcode ),

"@rank", [Instance Rank Measure]

),

[@rank]

)

RETURN

IF ( instancerank = Firstinstance-1, 2 )

Hello Jihwan_Kim,

Thanks a lot for the reply.
Yes you got it correct and it is giving the required results also.
There is one query that may I get first & second instances for any specific "Network Funtion" like, Access Switch"
As right now with these measures, when I filter a specific Network Function, sometimes 1st instance visible, not 2nd because that is related to another Network Function.
Kindly guide here, if I can give the condition in the DAX to calcualte the 1st & 2nd instance for any specific Network Function value.

Best Regards,
Brajpal Shishodia

Hi, @Anonymous 

Please check the link down below.

I modified measures to react to the slicer if there is.
