desired outcome = LOOKUPVALUE(
    'data'[name],
    'data'[value],CALCULATE(MAX('data'[value]),ALLEXCEPT('data','data'[id])),

    )
Error: A table of multiple values was supplied where a single value was expected.

Hi @Anonymous 

Create a calculated column or a measure

Column =
VAR max_value =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[value] ), ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[id] ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[name] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[id] ), 'Table'[value] = max_value )
    )


Measure =
VAR max_value =
    CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[value] ), ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[id] ) )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'Table'[name] ),
        FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[id] ), 'Table'[value] = max_value )
    )
