Count rows with datediff previous date and actual date between 30 days

I have this kind of data table with DeviceNr, TaskNr and date:

 

DeviceNrTaskNrDate
D001T-00101.01.2020
D001T-00102.01.2020
D001T-00225.01.2020
D001T-00327.01.2020
D001T-00330.01.2020
D002T-00405.01.2020
D002T-00503.02.2020
D002T-00607.02.2020
D002T-00610.03.2020
D002T-00713.03.2020
D002T-00817.04.2020
D003T-00905.01.2020
D003T-01008.02.2020
D003T-01010.02.2020
D003T-01114.02.2020


I want to get this result:

The result measure should count the rows with the condition: "if the datediff between the previous average date an the actual average date is <= 30 days it should count the row."

 

The average date is calculated in the data model with:

=AVERAGEX(FILTER('tab_tasks';'tab_tasks'[TaskNr]=EARLIER('tab_tasks'[TaskNr]));'tab_tasks'[Date])


The previous date is calculated with:

=CALCULATE(MAX('tab_tasks'[average date per task]);FILTER(ALL(tab_tasks[TaskNr];'tab_tasks'[average date per task]);COUNTROWS(FILTER('tab_tasks';EARLIER(tab_tasks[average date per task])<'tab_tasks'[average date per task]))))

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

 

Average Date = CALCULATE(average(tab_tasks[Date]),ALLEXCEPT(tab_tasks,tab_tasks[TaskNr],tab_tasks[DeviceNr]))

Prev Avg Date = 
var t = tab_tasks[TaskNr]
var pt = CALCULATE(max(tab_tasks[TaskNr]),ALLEXCEPT(tab_tasks,tab_tasks[DeviceNr]),tab_tasks[TaskNr]<t)
return CALCULATE(AVERAGE(tab_tasks[Date]),ALLEXCEPT(tab_tasks,tab_tasks[DeviceNr]),tab_tasks[TaskNr]=pt)

Ct = 
var c = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS(tab_tasks),ALLEXCEPT(tab_tasks,tab_tasks[DeviceNr],tab_tasks[TaskNr]))
return SWITCH(TRUE(),ISBLANK(tab_tasks[Prev Avg Date]),BLANK(),datediff(tab_tasks[Prev Avg Date],tab_tasks[Average Date],DAY)<31,divide(1,c,0),0)

See my reply above. I already used your new sample data.

Please provide sample data that covers such a scenario.

Thank you for your reply. In the following table is the new example date for the table 'tab_tasks'

There are some issues with the HTML Code for tables.

Hello, thank you for your reply. 
It is very important, that the subtotals will be calculated right, as the sum of the column ct.
If I want to copy your measure "Prev Avg Date", I get an error message: "Not a single value can be determined for column TaskNr".
Maybe there is another solution approach.
Best regards

Note: the below are calculated columns as you didn't indicate if the result can be impacted by user filter choices and you didn't indicate what to do with the DeviceNr.

 

 

 

Average Date = CALCULATE(average(tab_tasks[Date]),ALLEXCEPT(tab_tasks,tab_tasks[TaskNr]))

Prev Avg Date = 
var t = tab_tasks[TaskNr]
var pt = CALCULATE(max(tab_tasks[TaskNr]),ALL(tab_tasks),tab_tasks[TaskNr]<t)
return CALCULATE(AVERAGE(tab_tasks[Date]),ALL(tab_tasks),tab_tasks[TaskNr]=pt)

Ct = if(datediff(tab_tasks[Prev Avg Date],tab_tasks[Average Date],DAY)<31,1,0)

 

 

 

I leave the cleanup decisions up to you.  Technically a single date per task can still  yield an average.
