Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Yes, @amitchandak 's answer is right. you should do like this.

Column = 
var new = 
RANKX(
    FILTER(
        'Sheet2',
        Sheet2[User] = EARLIER(Sheet2[User])
    ),
    Sheet2[Name].[Date],
    ,ASC,Dense
)
return 
IF(
    new=1,
    "N",
    BLANK()
)

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

Actually I don't want to rank the data but need to add a flag. Could you please use the same dataset and share the calculation?

 

Thanks
