To show the latest location on map

[Anonymous]

I have a machine working in Germany last month and working in France this month. How to show only France on Map.

Machine Type	Location	Date
Truck 001	Germany	2019/11/11
Truck 001	France	2019/12/12

My data table is like above. Thank you very much for your help.

You haven't mentioned FILTER in the formula.
See below:
CALCULATE(MIN(Maps[Location]),FILTER(Maps,Maps[Date]=LatestDate && Maps[Location]=Location))

The higlighted part needs to be in the query.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please refer to the calculated culumn below and see if the result achieve your expectation.

Column = 
VAR a =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Machine Type] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[Machine Type] ) )
    )
RETURN
    IF ( 'Table'[Date] = a, 'Table'[Location], BLANK () )

Here's my sample data and the result would be shown as below.

 

Best Regards,

Hello @Anonymous ,

You can create a calculated column that fetches only the latest location and then use that column in the map visual.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if this didn't help.

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

What's the dax function for this?

[rajulshah]

Hey, 

You can use the following DAX function here:

Latest Location = 
VAR LatestDate = CALCULATE(LASTDATE(Maps[Date]),FILTER(Maps,Maps[Machine Type]=EARLIER(Maps[Machine Type])))
VAR Location = Maps[Location]
RETURN CALCULATE(MIN(Maps[Location]),FILTER(Maps,Maps[Date]=LatestDate && Maps[Location]=Location))

Please see the following image:

Hope this helps.
