Getting MIN Date based on two fiters

Hello - Hoping for some assistance. I have a column named "Source" and there are two values in this column. The table has two date columns, a date for one source and a date for the other. I need a calculation that will bring the MIN date for each. Example:

ID#1, Source = Email, Email Date = 5/1/2024, 5/2/2024, 5/3/2024.

ID#2, Source = Phone, Phone Date = 5/2/2024, 5/3/2024, 5/4/2024.

ID #3, Source = Phone, Phone Date = 4/1/2024, 5/1/2024, 5/5/2024

I need a calculation that would return this:

ID#1 = 5/1/2024

ID#2 = 5/2/2024

ID#3 = 4/1/2024

 

Is this possible?

Okay so I created this fact table.

Based on this fact table, I created this measure:

 

Min_Date =
VAR mindate_col1 = MIN([CreatedDate])
VAR mindate_col2 = MIN([HasAttachmentDate])
return
IF(mindate_col1 <= mindate_col2, mindate_col1, mindate_col2)
 
And was able to produce this visual:

Could you include a screenshot of a table containing this example data?  It's a bit unclear exactly what values are in what columns and how they are formatted, from what you provided.
