Last date value

Hi everybody !

 

I want to show a last date value without a slicer, so I try function like firstnonblank and lastnonblank but nothing worked..

Is it possible or should I put a date slicer in order to forecast a last date value ?

 

Thanks

Best regards

David

That is why it is important to post sample data to clarify. Try this:

 

Measure = 
VAR maxDate = MAX('Table'[Date])

RETURN
MAXX(FILTER('Table',[Date]=maxDate),[Column])

Something like that.

Hello.

Yes, that formula works for 1 level items. But when I add the one level above which is supposed to summarize the calculated level 1 numbers, it works exactly the same as level 1. It doesn't add but returns 1 biggest value. Can you solve that?

@DavidB023 I didn't understand what you want, but have you tried to use the function LASTDATE()?

I would like to display a value which correspond to my last date value. So for exemple, my date are in month, today I want to see May value. (all of this without a slicer to choose date)

Hi @DavidB023

 

I think the simplest thing to do is to create a new measure

 

Last_Month = MAX(YourTable[Date].[Month])

@DavidB023 ok, maybe try = FORMAT(LASTDATE(TableName[Date].[Date]),"MMMM"), this formula returns the name of the month of the last date of the "Date" column you have.

You should just be able to use MAX.

@quentin_vigne@Anonymous@Greg_Deckler thanks for your answer !

In fact it concern squad data, so it would be easy like MAX if my enterprise just hire month after month ^^ but it is like :

 

may 2018                500
avril 2018                450
march 2018             503

 

So, today I want to display 500 on my repport..

That is why it is important to post sample data to clarify. Try this:

 

Measure = 
VAR maxDate = MAX('Table'[Date])

RETURN
MAXX(FILTER('Table',[Date]=maxDate),[Column])

Something like that.
