How to get latest date in list after refresh

Hi EVERYONE,

 

Every time I refresh my report, I can't seem to find a way to have it automatically select the latest date when I first open the report up. It will always automatically select previous days.

So above is an example, I open the report after the refresh and it has selected the day before rather than today. Can someone help me?

@Anonymous , As of now you have to use a workaround. There was some discussion on the default date on LinkedIn, which might come soon

 

a new column = if(max(Table[Date]) = Table[Date] , "Latest Date", [Date] & "" )

 

then save it on latest date , you can mark Date as sort column
