Hi,


 I am trying to calculate time difference of a variable (daily change and difference from first date) for each category in my workflow, how can I calculate it?

Here is an example of my question, I need to calculate price change and Change from fist date (YTD) for each market over the time.


Thanks,

Thank you,
I am looking for something that will not eliminate first date from my data set, also I need to calculate daily growth as well as difference from first date
