return latest date between 2 date columns

Hi there,

 

I am struggling to find an efficient DAX formula to give me a column which contains the latest date from 2 date columns.

For example, the below table is my data source and the 2 columns I would like to use are "Lease End Date" & "Lease Secondary End Date":

I would like to add the below column highlighted as desired result in Power BI?

Please help me solve, I've been trying for the last 2 hours with no easy solution found yet.

Thank you,

Edward

Thank you.

 

For the rows which has a blank "Lease Secondary End Date" the result is returning me a blank instead of the "Lease End Date"?

when we use MAX , blank = 0.  the result will be whatever non 0.
