Capture values based on max count

Hello All,

Need your help! Is there any way that I can capture the name of crime which has max counts? With below case it should show Burglary of vehicle since its count is 715. I have a measure which gets the value of max count = 715 but not sure how to write anothet measure which will show the value corresponding to this value.

Hi @Anonymous

 

Assuming your Table name is "CrimeData", try this measure

 

Most Common Crime =
VAR Maxvalue =
    MAXX (
        SUMMARIZE (
            CrimeData,
            CrimeData[CrimeType],
            "Count", COUNT ( CrimeData[CrimeType] )
        ),
        [Count]
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        VALUES ( CrimeData[CrimeType] ),
        FILTER (
            VALUES ( CrimeData[CrimeType] ),
            CALCULATE ( COUNT ( CrimeData[CrimeType] ) ) = MaxValue
        )
    )

Hi, I used the following formula to get the max value.

 

Measure = MAXX ( VALUES ( table[column1] ), CALCULATE ( COUNT ( table[column2] ) ) )

 

Hope this helps, else please write again. Thanks

It works. Thank you.

        )
    )

When there are  multiple values for Most Common Crime, it's not working.
