Getting values based on latest available dates incl. filtered earlier dates
Hello,
I'm trying to create a table that shows the fields based on the latest available date by default, as well as when filtered.
Sample data:
| Customer | Date | Sale |
| Client 1 | 31-Jan-20 | 10 |
| Client 1 | 29-Feb-20 | 15 |
| Client 2 | 31-Dec-20 | 8 |
| Client 3 | 31-Dec-20 | 2 |
| Client 3 | 31-Jan-20 | 5 |
| Client 4 | 29-Feb-20 | 9 |
| Client 2 | 29-Feb-20 | 6 |
Output 1 (Default):
| Customer | Date | Sale |
| Client 1 | 29-Feb-20 | 15 |
| Client 2 | 29-Feb-20 | 6 |
| Client 3 | 31-Jan-20 | 5 |
| Client 4 | 29-Feb-20 | 9 |
Output 2 (Filtered for 31-Jan-20):
| Customer | Date | Sale |
| Client 1 | 31-Jan-20 | 10 |
| Client 2 | 31-Dec-20 | 8 |
| Client 3 | 31-Jan-20 | 5 |
LatestDate = MAXX(Table1, Table1[Date]) can generate Output 1, but is missing Client 2 details for Output 2.
Guidance from the gurus will great gratitude!
Hi Anonymous
I change my measure and build a slicer to achieve your goal.
Slicer table:
Slicer = VALUES(Table1[Date])Result:
Measure
LatestDate = VAR _SELECT = SELECTEDVALUE ( Slicer[Date] ) VAR _A = MAXX ( FILTER ( ALL ( Table1 ), Table1[Customer] = MAX ( Table1[Customer] ) && Table1[Date] <= _SELECT ), Table1[Date] ) VAR _B = MAXX ( FILTER ( ALL ( Table1 ), Table1[Customer] = MAX ( Table1[Customer] ) && Table1[Date] <= TODAY () ), Table1[Date] ) RETURN IF ( ISFILTERED ( Slicer[Date] ), _A, _B )LastSales = SUMX(FILTER(ALLEXCEPT(Table1,Table1[Customer]),Table1[Date]=[LatestDate]),Table1[Sale])As default, we will get values based on the latest available dates compare with toady.
Today() = 2020/8/14 so the available dates should be 2020/1/31 and 2020/2/29.
Result:
Select 2020/1/31, the available dates should be 2020/1/31.
Result:
Select 2020/2/29, the available dates should be 2020/1/31 and 2020/2/29.
Result:
Select 2020/12/31, the available dates should be 2020/1/31 , 2020/2/29 and 2020/12/31.
Result:
If this reply still couldn't help you to solve your problem, please tell me more details.
I am confused about why when you select 2020/1/31, the result will show 2020/12/31. Could you tell me your calculate logic?

Anonymous , Try with Customer in visual table
lastnonblankvalue(Table[Date], Sum(Table[Sale]))
max(Table[Date])Thanks for the response.
I've set
SaleMeasure = lastnonblankvalue(Table[Date], Sum(Table[Sale]))DateMeasure = max(Table[Date])
and my output when filtering Date = "31-Jan-20" is still
Customer DateMeasure SaleMeasure Client 1 31-Jan-20 10 Client 3 31-Jan-20 5 I think it's because my Filter is based on Date because I can't put DateMeasure in the Filter section - any idea how to do this?
Hi Anonymous
You may try my measure.
I build a table like yours to have a test.
Measure:
LatestDate = MAXX(FILTER(all(Table1),Table1[Customer]=MAX(Table1[Customer])), Table1[Date])LastSales = SUMX(FILTER(ALLEXCEPT(Table1,Table1[Customer]),Table1[Date]=[LatestDate]),Table1[Sale])Result:
Default:
Filter 2020/1/31 it will still show the latest date in measure:
