    Hi deisterBI ,

    If you want to add a new column, you also just need to adjust my measure simply, please try below dax formula:

    Article Column =
VAR cur_monarticle = 'Table'[Mother article]
VAR tmp =
    FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Mother article] = cur_monarticle )
VAR max_sale =
    MAXX ( tmp, [Sales] )
VAR article =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Doughter article] ),
        FILTER ( ALL ( 'Table' ), 'Table'[Sales] = max_sale )
    )
RETURN
    article

    Please refer the attached .pbix file.

Now that i ran some tests, i came across a problem:
when another daughter article in another part list, has the same sales as the maximum one in another part list, those get switched up at times.

The only link between both datasets seems to be the qty in sales.
I thought that the variables you defined, prefented that exact result, but apparently it is possible that the formula only matches the daughter article number based on the max sales and somehow is ignoring the mother article parameter.

i am super lost here, if you can help once again , that would be great 🙂
