Return the Value of the Highest Month of Sales

I need to find the best month of sales and return its value (for the max value of the gauge).

HI @fva6937

 

Try this Measure for Highest Month Value

 

HighestMonthValue =
MAXX (
    SUMMARIZE (
        TableName,
        TableName[Date].[Month],
        "Total Sales", SUM ( TableName[Sales] )
    ),
    [Total Sales]
)

HI @fva6937

 

Try this Measure for Highest Month Value

 

HighestMonthValue =
MAXX (
    SUMMARIZE (
        TableName,
        TableName[Date].[Month],
        "Total Sales", SUM ( TableName[Sales] )
    ),
    [Total Sales]
)

Thant's Awesome! Thanks!!

 

Is there a way that I could get the value by the Salesperson, when I filter?

 

I tried SUMX, but I still have more to learn Smiley Very Happy

Hi @fva6937

 

Then use this MEASURE for Month with Highest Sales

 

HighestMonth =
VAR mytable =
    SUMMARIZE (
        TableName,
        TableName[Date].[Month],
        "Total Sales", SUM ( TableName[Sales] )
    )
VAR myValue = [HighestMonthValue]
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        FIRSTNONBLANK ( TableName[Date].[Month], 1 ),
        FILTER ( mytable, [Total Sales] = myValue )
    )
