Hi @Scheruku,

 

Can you give more information on what you're trying to achieve as it looks like you've achieved it. I'm not sure what you're asking.

 

Thanks!

I would suggest the following:

2017-11-23_11-14-48.jpg

 

First, parse the Dt column into Alteryx form (yyyy-MM-dd)

Then sort the data by Customer and then Date

Finally, use a MultiRow formula to compute date diff. Expression of:

IIF([Act]="Reconnection",
DateTimeDiff([Dt_Parsed],[Row-1:Dt_Parsed],"days"),
NULL())

Sample attached

This is some great stuff... Thank you very much for your time.
