Hi @Peeches123,

You should have a date column, then have a month column as my sample table. Then please create a calculated column using the formula: 

MAX = CALCULATE(MAX(TableName[Date]),ALLEXCEPT(TableName,TableName[Month]))


Please see the expected result as follows.

@Peeches123 so if i understand you correctly you want to get the last day of each month that is reflected in each column?

 

can you post a screenshot of what you data looks like?
