Count and Getting Max

Hi everyone

I'm loosing my mind on a simple case, but I can't find why it doesn't work

So I have a table like this one:

 

Project TypeUser#CountProjectNameStartFinish
AArchitecture2Test13/01/201613/01/2016
AArchitecture1Test14/01/201613/01/2016
AArchitecture2Test14/01/201614/01/2016
AArchitecture1Test15/01/201614/01/2016
BSoftware5Test13/01/201615/01/2016
BSoftware5Test14/01/201615/01/2016
AProject Manager2Test13/01/201615/01/2016
AProject Manager2Test13/01/201614/01/2016

A

Project Manager2Test14/01/201614/01/2016

 

From this table, I'd like to get something like this one:

 

AArchitecture5Test13/01/201614/01/2016
BSoftware10Test13/01/201615/01/2016
AProject Manager4Test13/01/201615/01/2016
BProject Manager2Test14/01/201614/01/2016

 

So I'd like to count the number of architecture, Sofwtare and Project Manager and take the max date in my last column

So I've tried things like Max=Calculate(MAX([Finish]),ALLEXECPT([USER])) but it didn't work

Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thank you for your help

 

Kr,

 

Tom

@Anonymous this should work, basically give max of finish date for the user against all the records of that user

 

Max=Calculate(MAX([Finish]),ALLEXCEPT(Table, [USER]))

Ok so to do work, I had to add another measure for my Begin date column

Weird but now it's working
