Latest Date by Column Value

Hi, 

 

I have several columns in my table and I'd like to flag a 1 or 0 in another column based on the latest date by product. Any idea how to do this please? 

ID.  Date.         Product.   Flag

1.   11/01/23.     AD.           0

2.   11/01/23.     AD.           0

3.    06/08/24.   AD.            1

@M_SBS_6 Create a calculated column using the below DAX

 

 

Flag = 
var maxdate = CALCULATE(MAX(MyTable[Date]) , ALLEXCEPT(MyTable,MyTable[Product]))
RETURN
IF( MyTable[Date] = maxdate , 1 , 0 )

 

 

Output:

New column:

Flag = 
VAR LatestDate =
CALCULATE(
MAX('Table'[Date]),
FILTER(
'Table',
'Table'[Product] = EARLIER('Table'[Product])
)
)
RETURN
IF('Table'[Date] = LatestDate, 1, 0)

Hi @M_SBS_6 

 

you can write a column as follows:

Column = var max_date = calculate(max('Table'[Date]) , filter('Table' , 'Table'[Product]=EARLIER('Table'[Product])))
return
if (max_date='Table'[Date] , 1 ,0)
