Why does MAX(DATE) return multiple values?

'Date_0' is type date and has dates till 2021-12-31. However, Max(Date) returns all dates from 2021 in stead of 2021-12-31.

Could someboday please help on this?

Thanks in advance!

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    I think this has to do with your filter context.

    If you always want to have the last one, the following formula might help.

    Latest_Date = MAXX(ALL(raw[Date_0]), raw[Date_0])

        Hi Anonymous ,

         

        I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish.
        In your screenshot I see a table with year, quarter, month and day and the DAX formula for the Latest_Date calculation.

        You do realize that the DAX formula is not a filter for the visual, but only a calculation that can then be output in a visual.
