Hello,
I am new into Power BI and not so familiar with DAX yet.
For my dashboard I need to now the newest Version of the HW and the SW of a machine.
Every time when the machine runs, it is creating a row saving the HW and SW version.
In my dashboard I see latest and all old SW and HW versions of a machine.
But I just want to see the latest version of SW and HW?
thank you very much
Kind regards
Simone

Hi @Anonymous ,
Please try the following formula:
Measure =
COUNTROWS (
FILTER (
ALL ( 'Table' ),
'Table'[Machine] = MAX ( 'Table'[Machine] )
&& 'Table'[Version SW] >= MAX ( 'Table'[Version SW] )
&& 'Table'[Version SW] >= MAX ( 'Table'[Version SW] )
)
)
Then filter this visual with Measure = 1.
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

Thank you very much for your fast response.
Unfortenately the "VAR" term always run into a syntax error for ")".
After reserch I didn't found the reason for it.
Kind regards
Simone
@Anonymous , Sorry, My mistake
try like
Latest Version SW =
VAR __id = MAX ('Table'[ Serial Number] )
VAR __date = CALCULATE ( MAX('Table'[Version SW] ), ALLSELECTED ('Table' ), 'Table'[Serial Number] = __id )
return
CALCULATE ( MAX ('Table'[Version SW] ), VALUES ('Table'[Serial Number] ),'Table'[Serial Number] = __id,'Table'[Version SW] = __date )
no proplem, but I also have tried the RETURN command but it still doesn´t work.
Allready after the first variable I get the syntax error:
Latest Calypso Version =
VAR __id = MAX(LogMerge[Serial Number])
-> Wrong Syntax for ")".(DAX(VAR __id = MAX(LogMerge[Serial Number]))).
The same when I use "1" instead of "MAX(LogMerge[Serial Number])".
Whe I remove both "__" from "__id" i get the Syntax error
Wrong Syntax for "id".(DAX(VAR id = 1)).

@Anonymous , You can try a measure like this
Latest Version SW =
VAR __id = MAX ('Table'[ Serial Number] )
VAR __date = CALCULATE ( MAX('Table'[Version SW] ), ALLSELECTED ('Table' ), 'Table'[Serial Number] = __id )
CALCULATE ( MAX ('Table'[Version SW] ), VALUES ('Table'[Serial Number] ),'Table'[Serial Number] = __id,'Table'[Version SW] = __date )
