Need help regarding calculating earliest last status of a record

Hello,

 

I have demand updates table which logs all the updates for each demand. I want to keep latest update record of each demand in a new table. Problem is that even if a user adds comments for a demand, the status stays the same but a new line record is added with new timestamp. In such cases, I would like to keep the last substatus change record.

 

Below is an example table. The demand DOH-1252 has been updated as draft "4" times. In this case I would like to keep the record with date. e.g. "5/16/2019 11:25:02 AM" as my last sub-status update record. In case of DOH-1122 data would be fetched as it is because there are no substatus duplications.

5/20/2019 12:36:39 PMDOH-1252Draft
12/17/2018 12:02DOH-1122Pending Manager Approval

 

If anyone can help with this, it will be very helpful.
