Return Previous Row's Data, Direct Query SQL

Hi All,

 

I am trying to show the time difference between 'Time Created' by Employee. I have found solutions that use a calculated column, but I am using a direct query to a SQL server and this seems to prevent me from being able to use calculated columns.

 

The new column will show 7 min, 5 min, 5 min, etc.

Any help would be appreciated!

@Anonymous , You will not be able to create a column as earlier is not supported.

Try a measure like this

diff =
maxx(summarize(Table, Table[Employee], Table[time created],"_1",
max(Table[time created]) -maxx(filter(allselected(Table), Table[employee] =max(Table[employee]) && Table[time created] <max(Table[time created])),Table[time created])
),[_1])

 

This should work with the employee and time created. See if this can work for you

Alternate Solution in SQL using the Lead function and later Date Difference as follows

1. LEAD([Time Created],1) OVER (PARTITION BY Employee ORDER BY [Time Created]) AS Lead
2. DATEDIFF(MINUTE,[Time Created],LEAD([Time Created],1) OVER (PARTITION BY Employee ORDER BY [Time Created])) AS [Difference]
