Excellence!!! Love what you shared.
@jongio Hi Sir, I follow the way you shared and I got excellent results, but it is still a text type, can we transform it to duration type which is used to calculate the duration in total?

Hey! Have you solved this problem? I haven't succeeded yet :(
I used the first code and am getting some funky results. The code is ignoring my slicers and providing :: for the full column except for the dates that the slicer selected. for example I select 7/3/2020 in my slicer Date handle time 7/4/2020 :: 7/3/2020 00:09:11 7/2/2020 :: Keeps going for all the dates in the table @jongio @nyincpc
In the RETURN section of the DAX I wrote this to ensure you don't end up with the colons ("::")
RETURN
IF(
CONCATENATE (
D,
CONCATENATE ( " ", CONCATENATE ( H, CONCATENATE( ":", CONCATENATE (M, CONCATENATE ( ":", S ) ) ) ))) = " ::",
BLANK(),
CONCATENATE (
D,
CONCATENATE ( " ", CONCATENATE ( H, CONCATENATE( ":", CONCATENATE (M, CONCATENATE ( ":", S ) ) ) )))
)
@zvyagsta I think the issue might be you've created 'ACD Time' as a column instead of as a measure. When using it as a measure it still shows up as a Text format for me but it still calculates the column when used in a table:

I tried to create a measure.
A single value for column 'Duration, sec' in table 'data' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result.
I tried to create conditions for aggregation SUM, SUMX. I have no result. I'm new at this. What am I doing wrong?
how to sum the concatenated value
use calculate(average...) in a VAR and so on
Could you help me to implement this suggestion? I have a table with some activities and related durations in seconds. I need to calculate the avg of durations and display the value formatted hh_mm:ss in a card. If

@EnricaTunesi70, You need to sum the values BEFORE you run it through this measure because the original formula is only used to display the final result as text for visual purposes, not to do calculations.
when creating a new column with this code, I cant transform it into Duration. That option is only possible in Power Query afaIk.
I cant make it work to make a new column in Power Query with the code above.
What to do?
