    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    As far as I know, you don't need to use MAX() to use a measure, you can use it directly in your code.

    MAX() only support to use a column.

     

    Measure = 
SUM(Fact[Hours])   * [MyMeasure]

     

    If you want to get MAX from the measure, you can try MAXX().

     

    Measure = 
SUM ( Fact[Hours] ) * MAXX ( VALUES ( 'TableName'[KeyColumn] ), [MyMeasure] )

I have a fake "Measures" table where I store all my measures.

 

(I created it using DATATABLE, this approach was recommended from sqlbi website)
