Here is an example of what i am trying to calculate. This would be a DATEDIFF between Completion X and Completion Y, however these columns were melted into an attribute->value columns when i did an unpivot action on them. Hope this helps...
| Completion X | Completion Y | Completion Z | Cycle Time X-Y | Cycle Time Y-Z |
| 10/1/2018 | 11/1/2018 | 12/1/2018 | 31 | 30 |
| 10/2/2018 | 11/12/2018 | 12/2/2018 | 41 | 20 |
| 10/3/2018 | 11/3/2018 | 12/3/2018 | 31 | 30 |
| 10/4/2018 | 11/14/2018 | 12/4/2018 | 41 | 20 |
| 10/5/2018 | 11/5/2018 | 12/4/2018 | 31 | 29 |
| 10/6/2018 | 11/16/2018 | 12/4/2018 | 41 | 18 |
| 10/7/2018 | 11/7/2018 | 12/4/2018 | 31 | 27 |
So you already have it. A DATEDIFF and that is it. What is the problem?

my problem now is i did an unpivot action and now my columns look like this
Completion Type Completion Date Completion X 10/1/2018 Completion Y 11/1/2018 Completion Z 12/1/2018 I am trying to pivot these columns back but having trouble retainig the values. Is there a different way to calcuate the DATEDIFFs between these completion types withouth having to pivot the columns back?
