Modify measure to return the most recent occurrence of two values

Hello all, the measure below has been working great until a few days ago when the users decided to start moving tasks back into a bucket where the task may have started. The measure assumes that the tasks will advance through the buckets. Now when the task gets moved back into a previous bucket, the measure is ignoring the newer date. you can see the issue in the sample data below. The Backlog on line 2 is the current Bucket and should have started it's duration on 3/16. Thanks for any help

Customer ANot Interested / No Response3/1/20233/16/20233/1/2023

 

 

Bucket Start Date = 
VAR _currentBucket = 
    MIN(FactTable[BucketID])
VAR _currentTask =
    MIN(FactTable[TaskID])
RETURN
    CALCULATE(
        MIN(FactTable[Created]),
        FILTER(
            ALL(FactTable),
            FactTable[BucketID] = _currentBucket && FactTable[TaskID] = _currentTask
        )
    )

@rixmcx59 Maybe:

Bucket Start Date = 
  VAR _currentBucket = MIN(FactTable[BucketID])
  VAR _currentTask = MIN(FactTable[TaskID])
  VAR _table = 
    FILTER(
      ALL(FactTable),
      FactTable[BucketID] = _currentBucket && FactTable[TaskID] = _currentTask
    )
  VAR _result = MAXX(__table, [Created])
RETURN
  _result

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Thanks so much for the reply. I tried your measure and it's ignoring the first Bucket Start date, although it is accurate in returning the current Backlog bucket start. One of my report pages is tracking Bucket Change/Bucket duration, in this case I would need to track "Backlog" duration, then "Not Interested/No Response" duration and then Backlog again. I need the measure to capture start and end date no matter what the Bucket ID/Name is. Thanks
