    Thanks for the reply from lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight:

    Hi, Anonymous 

    Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:

    1.My sample data is as follows:

    2.As I am unsure how you have constructed the CALCULATETABLE(), I will assume that I only need the entries with IDs 1 and 2:

    TableA=CALCULATETABLE(SELECTCOLUMNS(
            'Table',
            "User_ID1", 'Table'[User ID],
            "Date_of_Purchase1", 'Table'[Date of Purchase]
        ),'Table'[User ID] IN {1,2})

    3.Here is my calculated table:

    Table2 = 
    VAR TableA =
        CALCULATETABLE (
            SELECTCOLUMNS (
                'Table',
                "User_ID1", 'Table'[User ID],
                "Date_of_Purchase1", 'Table'[Date of Purchase]
            ),
            'Table'[User ID] IN { 1, 2 }
        )
    VAR LatestPurchases =
        SUMMARIZE (
            TableA,
            [User_ID1],
            "Latest Purchase Date", MAX ( 'Table'[Date of Purchase] )
        )
    RETURN
        LatestPurchases

    4.Here's my final result, which I hope meets your requirements.

    Can you share sample data and sample output in tabular format if I am misunderstanding? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data. We can better understand the problem and help you.

     

    Please find the attached pbix relevant to the case.
