Hi,
I would like to use the power query to calculate the processing time based on interruptions and restarts.
An employee can open (STATUS=STARTED) and process a ticket several times. Once they have finished, they can close it (STATUS=CLOSED). How can I calculate the average of all these time intervals for the same ticket number?
Each time the employee suspends the activity, the ticket will have a status="INTERRUPT" and STATUS="RESUME" when it is resumed.
Tnaksin advance !!

thanks for your help 🙂
Hi @Anonymous
Can you provide some sample data and expected result in table format?
If your table has start time and end time of every interval, you can add a column to calculate the duration of every interval first. Then you can use Group by feature to get the average of intervals per ticket number. Group by ticket number column and calculate the average of interval duration in a new column.
If you can provide some sample data, we can help provide a detailed solution.
