DAX to Identify earliest date amongst common rows

Hello 

 

I am trying to create a DAX formula that creates a new collumn that for any duplicate set of ID numbers identifes with 'Yes' the row that has the earliest date and a 'no' for all the others. Example of end result I am after is: 

 

IDDate*New Collumn*
A01/01/2024Yes
A02/01/2024No
B01/01/2023Yes
B02/01/2023No
C01/01/2024Yes

 

I appreciate any help!

 

Thanks

            ORDERBY ( Data[Date], ASC ),
            ,
            PARTITIONBY ( Data[ID] ),
            MATCHBY ( Data[ID], Data[Date] )
        ),
        Data[Date]
    )

    IF ( Data[Date] = _earliest, "Yes", "No" )

Thank you! nearly there. But is there away to have this work with duplicates? Whereby any duplicate is identified with a 'yes'. Example:

 

IDDateExpected result CC
A1/1/24Yes
A1/1/24Yes
A1/1/25No
B1/2/23Yes
B1/2/24No
C1/1/24Yes
