Get the most recent transaction date

Hello to all the experts,

I have a database, that contains Warehouses inventory.

The columns are: Item ID / Warehouse name / qty. in WH / Last transaction date.

My goal is:

Get the most recent transaction date, for items that has total quantity of 0in all WH's, in which they are contained.

In this example: items 101, 104 and 106.

(Asume that the table is sorted by Item ID and Last Trans. date)

Item IDWHQty. in WHDate Last Trans. Item IDWHQty. in WHDate Last Trans.

Hi, Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

It is for creating a new table.

Expected table = 
VAR _expectedresulttable =
    CALCULATETABLE (
        Data,
        FILTER (
            VALUES ( Data[Item ID] ),
            CALCULATE ( ABS ( SUM ( Data[Qty. in WH] ) ) ) = 0
        )
    )
VAR _groupbylatestdate =
    GROUPBY (
        _expectedresulttable,
        Data[Item ID],
        "@latestdate", MAXX ( CURRENTGROUP (), Data[Date Last Trans.] )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATETABLE (
        Data,
        TREATAS ( _groupbylatestdate, Data[Item ID], Data[Date Last Trans.] )
    )

Thanks to the great efforts by MS engineers to simplify syntax of DAX! Most beginners are SUCCESSFULLY MISLED to think that they could easily master DAX; but it turns out that the intricacy of the most frequently used RANKX() is still way beyond their comprehension!

DAX is simple, but NOT EASY!
