Hello,I'm trying to only show the line that has the most recent RoleLastUpdate (see Image) for each distinct RoleID..I've tried this solution, however this only shows the most recent date for the whole table.Solved: Filtering table for rows showing the max date per ... - Microsoft Fabric CommunityThis solution is supposed to put a '1' next to the latest date, which can then be filtered on, however it's putting a one next to every date (image - last column).

Instead of ALLSELECTED use REMOVEFILTERS on the date column.

Hi&nbsp;PartyFish88&nbsp;,
As lbendlin said, using the REMOVEFILTERS function is a viable approach. Below is my answer.
It seems you’re on the right track with your DAX formula, but there’s a small adjustment needed to achieve the desired result.
Here’s the revised DAX measure:
MostRecentUpdateFilter2.0 =
VAR maxdate =
    CALCULATE(
        MAX('Legal IR35RoleReview'[RoleLastUpdate]),
        ALLSELECTED('Legal IR35RoleReview')
    )
RETURN
    IF(
        'Legal IR35RoleReview'[RoleLastUpdate] = maxdate,
        1,
        BLANK()
    )

By doing so, we’re now comparing the date for each row against the maximum date across all rows, regardless of the specific RoleID. This should correctly mark only the most recent date with a ‘1’ in your result.

Anonymous&nbsp;lbendlin&nbsp;I've tried both of your solutions, unfortunately they only bring back the most recent RoleUpdate (last night).I need to bring in the most recent Role update for each unique RoleID 🤔

In your version 4.0 what's the purpose of the VALUES filter?

partyfish88 · Answer

The VALUES filter is supposed to group events/updates together by their RoleID, this being a unique identifier. The rest of the DAX is supposed to put a '1' next to the most recent RoleLastUpdate which can then be filtered on, showing only the most recent RoleUpdate for each RoleID&nbsp;🙂I say supposed to, DAX isn't really my fortay . . . yet&nbsp;😅
