How to create a measure expression that displays columns linked to aggregated values

Hello!
Is it possible to calculate "max_value_category2" in the table below with the measure expression?
I want to output category2 when value is max with a measure expression.
Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Create a measure like this:

Measure = 
Var _A  = CALCULATE( MAX ( 'Table'[Value] ) , ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Category1] ))
return
if ( MAX ( 'Table'[Value] ) = _A , 1, 0)

 

then add Cat 1 and 2 to the table visual, and add Measure to the filter pane of that table visual and set a filter to show the value 1:

Hello, Thank you for answering!

This is a great idea. However, I want to display it without the category 2 column.

I want the measure expression to have a category 2 value.

Thank you.

You can remove Cat 1 column from the table and it will work fine, otherwise if you are looking for different type of output, please share more details.

Hello,‘@VahidDM ‘
Thank you for answering.
I'm sorry for the unclear intention.
I want to create "value_max" in the target table with a major expression.

I want to display the value when the value count is maximized.
thank you.

@Anonymous 

why count value of b is 6 not 4 when the slicer is day >=2022/1/3?

Hi @ryan_mayu Thank you for answering.

I'm sorry. That is my mistake.

It doesn't matter which character is displayed when the count is the same.

thank you.

Hello, thank you very much for your help. I made a major formula using your thoughts, and maybe I could have made it. I am very grateful. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Max_category =
Var _table1 = ADDCOLUMNS('table',
"MAX_value",
CALCULATE(MAX('table'[value]),ALL('table'[category2],'table'[value])))

Var _table2 = ADDCOLUMNS(_table1,
"MAX_value_flag",
if([value] =[MAX_value],1,0))

Var _table3 = FILTER(_table2,[MAX_value_flag]=1)

Var _Max_category = MAXX(_table3,[category2])
return
_Max_category


thank you.
