I have a small problem that I cant solve in efficient way. I want to create a new column "lastDatesales" which has "sum of sales "corresponding to the last purchase dates sales a company has. For example, company "a":s last purchase date was 10.1.2019, so I want to get the corresponding sales from that date to each row the company has.
My current solution is:
date | sales | company | lastDatesales (correct answer) |
1.1.2019 | 100 | a | 200 |
10.1.2019 | 200 | a | 200 |
1.1.2018 | 300 | b | 600 |
15.1.2018 | 600 | b | 600 |
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @user555
Modify az38's solution as below, then it can use to create a column
lastDatesales =
var _lastDate = calculate(MAX(Sheet1[date]),ALLEXCEPT(Sheet1,Sheet1[company]))
return
LOOKUPVALUE(Sheet1[sales],Sheet1[company],Sheet1[company],Sheet1[date],_lastDate)
Measure may perform quicker than column.
Check the performance under View->Performance Analyzer.
