Hi all, 

 

I have a SharePoint list with two columns, Company and Report date. Each company can have a few report dates. Using power bi, how can I show only the maximum date from the list of dates for each company. from below image you can see when I select a company it shows all the available report dates and I only want to show the latest date or have adifferent color.Dates.PNG

Hi @Harris021 

I did a local test ,you can take a reference 

I Create 2 measure ,one is to calculate the maxdate per company,the other one is to calculate the count for the maxdate

 

Here is my test  table

Measure for maxdate: maxdate = CALCULATE(MAX('Table (3)'[date]), ALLEXCEPT('Table (3)','Table (3)'[company]))

Measure for sales  :salesformaxdate = CALCULATE(SUM('Table (3)'[sales]),FILTER('Table (3)','Table (3)'[date]=MAX('Table (3)'[date])))

 

Then in visualization:

Hi @Harris021 ,

 

You can create a calculated column to determine whether a date is the max date for a particular item and use this to filter a measure, a visual, a page or the entire report. Example:

Max Date = 
CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[Date] ), ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Company] ) ) = 'Table'[Date]
