Pulling a column based on the max value of a different column

Keithlaf34 — Mon, 09 May 2022 14:06:10 GMT

Hello all,

I am trying to pull the Item code based on max quantity. For example, if i filtered on customer ID AA, it should return the item code A3A. Is there a measure i can use to solve this?

Hi Keithlaf34

please try

Code = CALCULATE ( MAX ( Customers[Item Code] ), Customers[Quantity] = MAX ( Customers[Quantity] ) )

You could use TOPN, e.g.

Top Product = var currentCustomer = SELECTEDVALUE( 'Table'[Customer ID]) var summaryTable = TOPN( 1, 'Table', 'Table'[Quantity]) return IF( COUNTROWS(summaryTable) = 1, SELECTCOLUMNS( summaryTable, "@val", [Item Code]))

This would return blank if there are 2 top products, but if you wanted to be able to display all tied products then you could run CONCATENATEX over the summary table

Code = VAR MaxQty = MAX ( Customers[Quantity] ) RETURN CALCULATE ( MAXA ( Customers[Item Code] ), Customers[Quantity] = MaxQty )

Hi Keithlaf34

Try this, create the measure below

Measure = var _selectedCustomre= SELECTEDVALUE(CustomerSlicer[Customer ID]) var _maxqty= MAXX(filter(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Customer ID]=_selectedCustomre),'Table'[Quantity]) var _maxItem=MAXX(FILTER(ALL('Table'),'Table'[Customer ID]=_selectedCustomre && 'Table'[Quantity]= _maxqty),'Table'[Item Code]) return IF(ISFILTERED(CustomerSlicer[Customer ID]),_maxItem,"select customer")
