While loop in a column..is this possible

Hi all,

I am wondering if there is a way to perform a looping in my current situation describe below.

I would like the power BI to insert a text called "Biggest" when it looping through and compare the value in each cell in the "Total Onhold Working Days" based on column "Case ID" (see below)

 

There is a loop and if statement to be embedded in this custom column (Determinant) and I am not sure how to do it.

The table on the left has been accending and descending order like the picture show.

Hope you can shed a light. Thank You

Hi @aiyosap 

 

Please try the following for calculated column:

 

Calculated Column = 
Var CurrentID = [Case ID]
Var MaxValue = MAXX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Case ID]=CurrentID),[Total Onhold Working Days])
RETURN 
IF('Table'[Total Onhold Working Days]=MaxValue,"biggest",BLANK())

 

 

And for measure, it would be like this as follows, copied by my previous answer:

 

Measure = 
Var CurrentID = MAX([Case ID])
Var MaxValue = MAXX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Case ID]=CurrentID),[Total Onhold Working Days])
RETURN
IF(MAX('Table'[Total Onhold Working Days])=MaxValue,"biggest",BLANK())

Hi @aiyosap , try to create a measure:

 

Measure = 
Var CurrentID = MAX([Case ID])
Var MaxValue = MAXX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Case ID]=CurrentID),[Total Onhold Working Days])
RETURN
IF(MAX('Table'[Total Onhold Working Days])=MaxValue,"biggest",BLANK())

 

Hi John,

 

Sorry but would that measure possible in a calculated column?
