    Hi, Pmorg73 

     

    Sorry for not being able to reply you in time due to busy Monday.

    If you use a calendar table date column in your visual, you can easily modify your measure.

    Like this:

    Measure =
MAXX (
    FILTER ( 'Table', [job summary] = SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[job summary] ) ),
    RELATED ( 'Table 2'[Date] )
)

    If it doesn’t solve your problem, please feel free to ask me.

     

    Best Regards

Hi, Pmorg73 

 

Since you didn‘t provide sample data and files, the sample I made is to reproduce the content of your screenshots, and there may be some situations that are not mentioned and cause problems.

Is the 'total all wip' a measure? Can you provide the formula? Since you didn’t specify, I used it as a column directly in my sample.

You need to provide more information so I can help you.

 

Best Regards

Janey Guo

having drilled in. it appears when I add the "Age in Months" calculated column from my date table it is when it adds the multiple values. So I think you have solved my initial problem thank you. i will play around with a max value for the date AGE column as it is there that the problem lies.
