    Thank you everyone for examples and assistance - appreciate it.

    I ended up doing the following:

    - Sort by Department (Ascending) then by date (Decending - putting the most recent date first)

    - Adding ranking logic by Department

    - The result is the most recent date results in a ranking of 1 for each departmnt

    - Filter on the 1 Ranking

    As the data dynamically updates, I will always get the most recent date.

    Thanks - Jerry

Hi Jerry,

 

let
    Quelle = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Tabelle3"]}[Content],
    #"Geänderter Typ" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Quelle,{{"KPIDATE", type date}}),
    #"Gruppierte Zeilen" = Table.Group(#"Geänderter Typ", {"ABTEILUNG"}, {{"LastDate", each List.Max([KPIDATE]), type nullable date}})
in
    #"Gruppierte Zeilen"
