TimeDifference with two times

Hi,

 

Could please help with the calculation here?

 

My measure calculation is trying to subtract the times 'sdate' and 'edate' and below should be 2:10 and its displaying as 3:00 on the card.  

 

Is this because Ive used MAX? Ive created another column with the calculation working and displaying 2:10, but I dont know how to reference this in the measure.

@Anonymous , the first way to take diff is that you create it as column

 

New column = [Time1] -[time2]


measure options

measure 1 = sumx(Table, Table[Time1] -Table[time2]) //you can use averageX


calculate( min(Table[Time1] ) -max(Table[time2]) , values(Table[ID])) // force row context, but Gt will wrong

 

refer for row context

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

Would it still be SUMX with below?

 

IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]>[ParameterEndDate]),0,1)?

 

Would this be a different operator?

 

Thanks

@Anonymous , what are you try to achieve here ?

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

I have a couple of If statements 

 

 IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]>[ParameterEndDate]),1,

IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<[ParameterEndDate]),2,

IF(SUMX(RoomUtilisation, RoomUtilisation[New End Date]<= [ParameterEndDate]),3,0

 

It says SUMX cannot work with type Boolean. Ive checked the formatting and all is correct.
