Subtract values in same table but different rows based on matching Subtract from ID and ID column

Hello,
I feel like the below should be possible without splitting the table/creating relationships but I am having a bit of trouble.
I want to create a new column where if "Different" is "Yes", then subtract the Difference from Amount 2 of ID (on a different row) that matches Subtract from ID column.
original table

IDAmount 1Amount 2DifferenceDifferentSubtract from ID
111550No 
2221055Yes111

 

final table

IDAmount 1Amount 2DifferenceDifferentSubtract from IDNew Col
111550No 0
2221055Yes1115

 

Thank you!

    It did not, I ended up just creating another table to with Subtract from ID as primary key.

  • alya1 add new column using this expression, change table and column name as per your model:

     

    New Column = 
    IF ( 
        Substract[Different] = "Yes", 
        VAR __substractId = Substract[Subtract from ID]
        VAR __Amount2 = CALCULATE ( MAX ( Substract[Amount 2] ), FILTER ( ALL ( Substract ), Substract[ID] = __substractId ) )
        VAR __Difference = Substract[Amount 1] - __Amount2
        RETURN 
            __Difference,
        Substract[Difference] 
    )
