Hello
I need to get the difference between every reopen and closed then return the same of the difference
1hr 2 mints + 29 mints + 2 mints = 1hr and 43 mints
| AFFECTED OBJECT | LOG CREATION DATE | EVENT NAME |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 12:20 | reopenticket |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 13:22 | closeticket |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 13:30 | reopenticket |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 13:59 | closeticket |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 15:26 | reopenticket |
| 10283 | 7/18/2019 15:28 | closeticket |
Hi @Matic20
You could create columns using DAX easier than in Power query.
index =
RANKX (
FILTER (
'Table (2)',
'Table (2)'[AFFECTED OBJECT] = EARLIER ( 'Table (2)'[AFFECTED OBJECT] )
),
[LOG CREATION DATE],
,
ASC,
DENSE
)
reopen time =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( 'Table (2)'[LOG CREATION DATE] ),
FILTER (
ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table (2)', 'Table (2)'[AFFECTED OBJECT] ),
'Table (2)'[index]
= EARLIER ( 'Table (2)'[index] ) - 1
)
)
time diff = IF([EVENT NAME]="closeticket",DATEDIFF([reopen time],[LOG CREATION DATE],SECOND))
total time per = CALCULATE(SUM('Table (2)'[time diff]),ALLEXCEPT('Table (2)','Table (2)'[AFFECTED OBJECT]))
final output =
VAR H =
INT ( [total time per] / 3600 )
VAR M =
INT ( ( [total time per] - INT ( [total time per] / 3600 ) * 3600 ) / 60 )
VAR S =
MOD ( [total time per] - INT ( [total time per] / 3600 ) * 3600, 60 )
VAR hh =
IF ( LEN ( H ) = 1, "0" & H, H )
VAR mm =
IF ( LEN ( M ) = 1, "0" & M, M )
VAR ss =
IF ( LEN ( S ) = 1, "0" & S, S )
RETURN
hh & ":" & mm & ":" & ss

Hi,
Please take a look at this code, I used the approach listed here to get the previous date, and then I added a custom column subtracting the times on each closedticket.
Finally, I grouped this on the affected object column to get the results you mentioned.
let
Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Data"]}[Content],
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"AFFECTED OBJECT", Int64.Type}, {"LOG CREATION DATE", type text}, {"EVENT NAME", type text}}),
#"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Changed Type",{{"LOG CREATION DATE", Order.Ascending}}),
#"Changed Type with Locale" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Sorted Rows", {{"LOG CREATION DATE", type datetime}}, "en-US"),
#"Sorted Rows1" = Table.Sort(#"Changed Type with Locale",{{"LOG CREATION DATE", Order.Ascending}}),
#"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Sorted Rows1", "Index", 1, 1),
#"Added Index1" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Added Index", "Index.1", 0, 1),
#"Merged Queries" = Table.NestedJoin(#"Added Index1",{"Index.1"},#"Added Index1",{"Index"},"Added Index1",JoinKind.LeftOuter),
#"Expanded Added Index1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Merged Queries", "Added Index1", {"LOG CREATION DATE"}, {"LOG CREATION DATE.1"}),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Expanded Added Index1",{"Index", "Index.1"}),
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Removed Columns",{{"LOG CREATION DATE.1", "PREVIOUS LOG CREATION DATE"}}),
#"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Renamed Columns", "Custom", each [PREVIOUS LOG CREATION DATE]-[LOG CREATION DATE]),
#"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Added Custom",{"Custom"}),
#"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Columns1", "Duration", each if [EVENT NAME] = "closeticket" then [LOG CREATION DATE]-[PREVIOUS LOG CREATION DATE] else null),
#"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom1",{{"Duration", type duration}}),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type1", {"AFFECTED OBJECT"}, {{"Total Duration", each List.Sum([Duration]), type duration}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"the final result is this.
Please mark it as solution if that works for you.
Tks!

@Anonymous I tried the proceedure provided but most of the results provided were wrong results
