Most Recent value - help

Hi all,

 

I have a sheet containing collated invoice requests.

 

Job number     Invoice Date     Invoice Value     Comments

1001                01/01/2020       £500                  ABC

1002                01/02/2020       £750                  DEF

1001                01/03/2020       £100                  GHI

1003                01/03/2020       £500                  JKL

1002                01/04/2020       £250                  MNO

1004                01/05/2020       £1000                PQR

 

Ultimately I need to get the following:

Most Recent Invoice Date

Value of Most Recent Invoice

Comments of Most Recent Invoice

 

I have the following Measures working:

MaxInvoiceDate = MAX(
Collated[Invoice Date]
)

 

MaxInvoiceComments =
LOOKUPVALUE (
Collated[Comments],
Collated[Invoice Date],
    [MaxInvoiceDate],
Collated[Job Number],
    MAX(Collated[Job Number]),
Collated[Comments],
    MAX ( Collated[Comments] )
)
 
What I'm having issues with, is determining the value of the most recent invoice.
Can anyone help?

Hi. You have to pick an aggregation because there will bemore than one date. First you need a calendar table related with that table. That way you can manage dates easily. You can build a measure like this

Sum of Last date = 
CALCULATE (
    SUM ( 'Table'[Invoice] ),
    LASTDATE ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
)

Hope that helps,
