Create flag based on any value from first column and filter on date column

Hello all, 

 

I'm not sure to know how to describe properly my need but I'll try to be clear with a specific example:

 

partvalid fromflag
A24/02/2024N
A25/12/2023Y
A26/11/2023N
B24/02/2024N
B25/12/2023Y
B26/11/2023N
C24/02/2024N
C25/12/2023Y
C26/11/2023N

 

Here is the final result. I want to create the flag column based on part and valid from column.
I want to flag to Y this new column the max(valid from) before 01/01/2024 for each part.
Do you guys know how to achieve a such dax formula ?

        MAX('Table'[valid from]) = MaxValidFromBefore2024,
        "Y",
        "N"
    )

    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Thanks for the reply from fahadqadir3 .

     

    You can also try the following:

     

    Measure:

    FlagM = 
    VAR _date = DATE(2024, 1, 1)
    VAR _maxDate = CALCULATE(MAX([valid from]), FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[part]), [valid from] < _date))
    RETURN
    IF(MAX('Table'[valid from]) = _maxDate, "Y", "N")

     

    Column:

    FlagC = 
    VAR _date = DATE(2024, 1, 1)
    VAR _maxDate = CALCULATE(MAX([valid from]), FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[part]), [valid from] < _date))
    RETURN
    IF('Table'[valid from] = _maxDate, "Y", "N")

     

    Output:

     

    Best Regards,

    ll, thanks for your help. The solutions looks nice but seems to not work in my case. I'm trying to do it on a semantic model connected in direct query. I have a cirular depandancy error when I'm trying the column, and for the measure it seems to duplicate my values with date from other part. The data are not ordered as in the example also.
    Any other suggestions ?
