DAX Measure for Max Column Value Based on Date
Hey everyone,
I've been at this for a while, it feels like it shouldnt be this hard. Any help greatly appreciatied.
I have a table of data with Corporate Officers - I want to show the MAX DATE or MOST RECENT DATE for each Officer Position. In other words, if we appoint a new Secretary, President etc. in this expression I only want to show the MOST RECENTLY appointed officer.
Below is a sample of the table - highlighted are the officers that have been superceeded by new appointees.
Thank again!
Do a grouping on the company id and position and aggregate by max appointment_date, but add a "all rows" aggregate.
Then expand the tables back out (without the company id and position fields) and then mark all rows where the appointment_date matches the max appointment date.
Hi amart ,
Your requirement is to keep the row with the largest appointment_date if company_id and position are same.
Please follow my steps if I understand you correctly:
My approach is somewhat similar to lbendlin is, with slight differences in the details, thank him very much.
Go to Power Query and select company_id and position columns for group by.
To this step has realized your needs.
If you have other questions please feel free to contact me.
The pbix file is attached.
