Struggling to create a measure

Hi everyone,

 

I am struggling to create a performance measure. Let's say I have a product that has to be validated by 3 different business units, I want to compute the delta time between team 1 and team 2, then between team 2 and team 3 for each of my products. The idea is then to create a matrix with every products and the time spent by the teams to validate it in order to measure efficiency.
Here's a screenshot if it can make things a bit more clear. Screenshot 2022-07-29 134509.png

Does anyone have an idea how this can be done ?

Thanks in advance !

Hi @Anonymous ,

According to your description, here's my solution. Create a calculated column.

Column =
DATEDIFF (
    MAXX (
        FILTER (
            'Table',
            'Table'[Product] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Product] )
                && 'Table'[Team]
                    = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Team] ) - 1
        ),
        'Table'[Input_datetime]
    ),
    'Table'[Input_datetime],
    DAY
)

Get the result.

Hi @Anonymous ,

What does delta time mean, do you want to get the date difference between the previous team and current team, like this:

For team3, it should be 1 (2022/7/6-2022/7/5). For team2, it should be 0 (2022/7/5-2022/7/5). Did I understand it correctly? If not, could you please show the expected result.

Hi, 
I got the following error but I don't understand why since I'm comparing 2 date values "DAX comparison operations do not support comparing values of type Text with values of type Number. Consider using the VALUE or FORMAT function to convert one of the values."

Hi @Anonymous ,

Is the data type of the Team column text? If so, change it to number.

@Anonymous , try a measure like

datediff([Input_datetime] , minx(filter(Table, [product] =earlier([product]) && [Team] <> earlier([Team]) && [Input_datetime] > earlier([Input_datetime] )),[Input_datetime]), day)

Thank you for your help ! However, it seems there's a problem with the measure since it's giving me inconsistent figures and most of the column values are blank Screenshot 2022-08-01 094801.png
