Hello, I want to show the Employee Name and Salary whose salary is max from the list of employees from the Employee Table. How can I do this?

@lalithprasads try these two measures:

 

Max Salary = CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table[Salary] ), ALLSELECTED () ) 

Employee with Max Salalry = 
CALCULATE ( MAX ( Table[EmpName] ), TOPN ( 1, ALLSELECTED (), Table[Salary], DESC ) )

I am not sure in what context you want to use these measures. You can create two measure and show them in each card visual.


Salary = CALCULATE( MAX(Table21[Salary]) , ALL(Table21[Employee]))
Max Salary Employee = TOPN(1,ALL(Table21[Employee]), CALCULATE(SUM(Table21[Salary])))
