Return highest value from a visual table

Hey there,

 

I need a measure that returns the highest value from the current visual table, take a look at the screenshot below

I have date and total sales in columns, I need the measure that could return the highest value on my table based on the filters applied, when filter changes I also want the measure to show the new "highest value" based on filters.

@info_algoritmia I see, try this:

 

SWITCH ( TRUE (),
  ISINSCOPE ( DateTable[Date], MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( DateTable[Date] ), [Sales] ),
  ISINSCOPE ( DateTable[Month], MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( DateTable[Month] ), [Sales] ),
  <<else condition>>
)

@parry2kdo you know any particular reason that this is working for weeks, year but not for months? It's not returning the max value for months

@parry2kTHANK YOU! THIS WORKED!

@info_algoritmia not sure what you used in ALLSELECTED, it should ALLSELECTED ( DateTable )

@parry2k   it works when date column is in the visual, but if I changed it to "Months", look, the "51700" is the highest sales value for "dates", not for "months", how can I update this and make it dinamyc? I'd want know to show the "230400" for February isntead

@info_algoritmia try this measure:

 

Highest Value = MAXX ( ALLSELECTED ( YourTable ), [Sales Measure] )

hey @parry2k  it worked but I need the value to be dynamic, I utilized the "calendar table" in the ALL SELECTED, and it works for dates, but when I changed the dates for months it's still showing the max per date instead of month, how could I modify this automatically? I want the max value for the current filters and columns I have in the table visual, not only for dates (daily)
