Can anyone please help me with this? as I am not able to get the max month like this anyhow.
Solved! Go to Solution.
pls try this
Measure =
VAR tbl=ADDCOLUMNS('Table',"check",if('Table'[AC]='Table'[CL]&&'Table'[AC]='Table'[CU],1,0))
return FORMAT(maxx(FILTER(tbl,[check]=1),'Table'[Months]),"mmmm")

pls try this
Measure =
VAR _tbl = TOPN(1,
SELECTCOLUMNS(
FILTER(
ADDCOLUMNS(
'Table',
"Flag", INT( MIN( CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[AC] ) ), CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[CL] ) ) ) = CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[CU] ) ) )
),
[Flag] = 1
),
"@Month", 'Table'[Months],
"@AC", 'Table'[AC]
),ABS([@AC]))
RETURN
MAXX(_tbl,[@Month])
HI @Ahmedx , @ryan_mayu
If we want to create measure for same on negative numbers and for each department, how can we do that , I am not able to figure that out. Here is a sample data.
Department | Months | AC | CL | CU |
2 | January | 5000 | 4678 | 5678 |
2 | December | 4600 | 3789 | 4786 |
2 | November | 3400 | 3566 | 3045 |
2 | October | 2560 | 2343 | 2560 |
2 | September | 2100 | 2100 | 2100 |
2 | August | 2000 | 2000 | 2000 |
2 | July | 1050 | 1050 | 1050 |
2 | June | 990 | 990 | 990 |
2 | May | 745 | 745 | 745 |
2 | April | 500 | 500 | 500 |
2 | March | 245 | 245 | 245 |
2 | February | 105 | 105 | 105 |
46 | February | -1 | -1 | -1 |
46 | March | -2 | -2 | -2 |
46 | April | -3 | -3 | -3 |
46 | May | -4 | -4 | -4 |
46 | June | -5 | -5 | -5 |
46 | July | -6 | -6 | -6 |
46 | August | -7 | -7 | -7 |
46 | September | -8 | -8 | -8 |
46 | October | -9 | -10 | -11 |
46 | November | -10 | -12 | -13 |
46 | December | -14 | -17 | -15 |
46 | January | -20 | -16 | -15 |
and the result should be different, not September?
yes, depends on data, for negative right now it is september only, as max value works differently in negative right?
HI @Ahmedx
Suppose for this department , last matching values are -8 for september month, while using you query, it will show february, but I want september
as in negative value we would want minimum value instead of maximum value.
pls try this
Measure =
VAR _tbl = TOPN(1,
SELECTCOLUMNS(
FILTER(
ADDCOLUMNS(
'Table',
"Flag", INT( MIN( CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[AC] ) ), CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[CL] ) ) ) = CALCULATE( MIN( 'Table'[CU] ) ) )
),
[Flag] = 1
),
"@Month", 'Table'[Months],
"@AC", 'Table'[AC]
),ABS([@AC]))
RETURN
MAXX(_tbl,[@Month])
Hi,
Do you have a year column as well? If yes, then please share the dataset with that column.
There is not year column, but I got the solution from @ryan_mayu . Thanks for the help.
pls try this
Measure =
VAR tbl=ADDCOLUMNS('Table',"check",if('Table'[AC]='Table'[CL]&&'Table'[AC]='Table'[CU],1,0))
return FORMAT(maxx(FILTER(tbl,[check]=1),'Table'[Months]),"mmmm")
