    Hi Anonymous,

    There some mistakes.

    First, some filter you lost some filter on this visual. [Latsed month] is 0 applied on visual "Max daily visitor count", but not on "Max date of vistor count".

     

    Then format the maximum date of 6051. You can just use 'DataVentures_ALL' table directly as the context due to it has been filtered by other slicers on this page. DAX you can refer this:

    Max date of vistor count = 
FORMAT (
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( DataVentures_ALL[Date] ),
        FILTER ( 'DataVentures_ALL', [Pop_Count] = MAX ( DataVentures_ALL[Pop_Count] ) )
    ),
    "dd mmm'yy"
)

     

    I modified your pbix file in the end you can refer.

Good am:

When filtering down to your requirment on the DATAVENTURES_ALL I believe theresult was for 1-1-2022 with 651 count. I think that was solved? 

 

If you can find a way to slide a date table in and get the facts and dims squared away, you should be in great shape!

 

Thanks!

Hi Whitewater100 , agree the moded needs a date table and refinement but I'll leave that for the client to decide.

I did manage to resolve the issue based on current model by tweaking the formula based on the responses here including yours. 

So again, many thanks for your kind efforts and help with this, much appreciated.
