DAX Calculate the Max for a Group

Hello!  I have a problem and have a feeling a simple DAX formula can solve it. 

I would like the 'Desired Output' column to be the Max of the 'Check' column, evaluated for each Name.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for the post ashishrj,

After many more google searches I was able to find this, Stack Overflow Calc Max


Desired Output=CALCULATE(MAX([Check]),FILTER(Table1,[Name]=EARLIER([Name])))

@scottkad You can use MAX() DAX expression. In your case Desired Output = MAX (TableName[Check]). Let me know if this is what you are looking for !

But what you going to do if you have unsorted list? You can't really on ordering in general. Is there is way to do this without order dependence?
