Not showing duplicates in visual
Hello everyone,
Maybe someone can help me with this problem.
I created a PieChart based on my dataset. The visual displays results of testcases with repect to a softwareversion. So some testcases will have multiple results depending on the amount of softwareversions. That is good and I need that for my whole report. So it makes no sense to create an extra column to find latest result.
Because for one visual I need to show only the latest result for one testcase I need a measure to filter out the latest.
Any ideas how that measure could look or if there is another way to do that on the visaual level only?
Thanks
Hi, Anonymous
Latest_Date = var MaxDate = CALCULATE(MAXX(Users,Users[Date]), ALLEXCEPT(Users,Users[USER-ID])) return MaxDateIs this something that would fulfil your request?

Hi, Anonymous,
it's possible to filter in visual using TOPN, see pictures:Hi, vojtechsima
This is not really what I am looking for. In your example the name or email is equivalent to my testcase. I need the last result for every name(testcase) and not the latest in total. So in you example if there would be a name more than once, than only show the one thats latest. But thanks for your effort.

Anonymous That seems like a Lookup Min/Max situation:
Measure Lookup Max Simple = VAR __Table = 'Table3' VAR __Max = MAXX(__Table,[Column1]) RETURN MAXX(FILTER(__Table,[Column1] = __Max),[Column])Hi Greg_Deckler ,
thanks for your idea, but it doesnt seem to work the way I need it to. Lets say I have two results of testcases with same ID but on different versions. I need the measure to filter out the one thats older. I tried your approach and its just showing the date of the result in the table instead of removing it. i had the ideo to assign 1s and 0s to it and than filter after 1s for the latest but dont really know how to do this with a measure.

Anonymous Hard to be specific without sample data and expected output. Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
