Good day to all,
I have about 20 events/dates in a shipping sequence that I need to run a check on.
I need to determine two things:
1. Any missing dates in the sequence (think missing scans during the process)
2. If any dates are out of sequence.
Using the screenshot above.
1. I would need a count of the two rows missing dates. (Lets just call it per row at this stage, so 2 in this case.)
2. In order 105 (yellow) obviously we cannot pack it after shipping so I need to capture that.
Ultimately I would like to produce those rows in an output visual table as well as a count.
I have a secondary table that ranks the sequence to use as a reference. (Static/Imported)
Given the high number of events, nested IFs and Switch do not seem to be elegant solutions as I have seen in my search of this forum.
Suggestions on how to approach this?
I appreciate your time!

Thank you Ashish and Ryan. Kudos given.
I am going to leave it as unresolved for a bit as I worry about upscaling that to the 20+ dates that would have to be used in those measures/columns. This data set already has a considerable number of custom columns added and I worry about adding even more.
Any thoughts on an approach to that many steps needing the comparisons? (I only placed 4 in the example but there are considerably more in the actual data set.)
Hi,
Write these calculated column formulas
Missing dates = 1*(Data[Order placed]=BLANK()||Data[order processed]=BLANK()||Data[packed]=BLANK()||Data[shipped]=BLANK())Dates ordered properly = 1*(if(Data[Missing dates]=1,BLANK(),not(Data[order processed]>=Data[Order placed]&&Data[packed]>=Data[order processed]&&Data[shipped]>=Data[packed])))
Hope this helps.
