Max Date for Employee Column
I have the following table:
| Date | Emp ID |
| 1/2/2019 | 325 |
| 1/3/2019 | 326 |
| 1/4/2019 | 325 |
| 1/5/2019 | 326 |
| 1/7/2019 | 401 |
| 1/8/2019 | 401 |
I'd like to get the result:
| Emp ID | Max Date |
| 325 | 1/4/2019 |
| 326 | 1/5/2019 |
| 401 | 1/8/2019 |
Does anyone know how to do this in DAX?
Hi Anonymous ,
I think you might have created a column instead of a measure.
In my answer, I created a measure.
The result will be wrong if you created a calculated column.

Hi Anonymous ,
You just need a measure to use MAX() function.
Max Date = MAX ( test[Date] )
Then you can use a table visual to get result.
Don’t summarize the value of Emp ID.

I wish it was that easy. When I tried that I got the max date for the entire column, not the one for the employee column. In sql I would have done something like, max([date] for [employee])
