Getting the Maximum number across multiple columns
- 4 years ago
imagautham use this
Measure = Var maxproduct1 = MAX('Table'[Prodcut 1 sales])
Var maxproduct2 = MAX('Table'[Prodcut 2 sales])
return
if(maxproduct1 >maxproduct2,maxproduct1,maxproduct2)Please accept as solution if its worked - 4 years ago
The MAX function will also return the larger of two scalar values, so you could use both functions of MAX like this:
MAX ( MAX ( 'Table'[Product 1 sales] ), MAX ( 'Table'[Product 2 sales] ) ) - 4 years ago
Hi,
That is not the ideal structure to have. In the Query Editor, you should select the first column, right click and select "Unpivot Other Columns". Then write this measure and drag it to a card visual
Max value = max(Data[Value])
Hope this helps.

Ashish_Mathur Hi Ashish. Thanks for the feedback.
I'm a newbie to Power BI. Can you explain why the above approach is not ideal?

Hi,
Because you will not be able to create a Product slicer and your measure will be very long and cumbersome to write if you had 10 products (and there 1 column for each product).
