Hi everyone, can somebody help me out with this challenge I'm facing.
Here is my sample data:
ID Week Var1
1 1 no
2 1 null
3 1 yes
1 2 yes
2 2 yes
3 2 yes
So I have a unique ID, weeknumber and a variable (yes, no, empty). My goal is to track the changes from 0 -> 1 every week (so not from empty (null) -> 1).
My idea was to add a column with the value of the previous week for that unique ID. But somehow it doesn't work. This is what I've tried:
previous = CALCULATE(sum(Blad1[Var1]);Blad1[ID];Blad1[week]-1)
and also tried this solution, but nothing:
Does someone has a solution for this problem? Would really appreciate it!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
Enter this calculated column formula
=CALCULATE(LASTNONBLANK(Data[Var1],1),FILTER(Data,Data[ID]=EARLIER(Data[ID])&&Data[Week]<EARLIER(Data[Week])))
Hope this helps.
