    Hi  ldwf ,

    Here are the steps you can follow：

    1. Create measure.

    Measure =
var _min=MINX(ALLSELECTED('Dim Date Table'),[Date])
var _max=MAXX(ALLSELECTED('Dim Date Table'),[Date])
return
CALCULATE(
MAX('Dim Health Indexes Table'[Health Index]),FILTER(ALL('Dim Health Indexes Table'),
'Dim Health Indexes Table'[Date]=_max))

    Best Regards,

what did you get now?

could you pls provide the sample fact table and dim table?

What if you select 3/30/22, what's the result you want to get?

The number is inflated by a lot when I use this DAX formula.  The model is star schema.  The fact table joins to the date table by a date id, and the fact table joins to the other dimension table by the key.  The joins are correct, and I am able to write queries joining all three tables.  But I want to create a new measure in the fact table using a field in the dimension table (not the date table) and apply it to the maximum date selected in the slicer.  Hope this helps explain
