Answer 1

First of all you should consider that Dates are recognized as dimensions.

That being said, to get the minimum value for a certain combination of dimensions (all in the row shelf), you just right click your date field then click measure and then minimum.

Take a look at the example using the superstore dataset with Order date as your time field.
